Other than legacy technology like WYSIWYG form builders, Visual Studio Code has the same functionality but with a simpler, superior interface. Visual Studio is a legacy product, it’s that simple, although a lot of people don’t seem to want to accept it.
- e-master 6y agoNo it’s not. VS Code doesn’t allow you to view/manage threads, modules for example which are crucial for a bit more advanced debugging. I love VS Code and use it daily, but it’s no replacement for VS yet.
- alkonaut 6y agoDesigners is just one of a handful of things. The perf analysis tools for example don’t exist in vscode. You can compensate by using a separate profiler but that just drives home the point that VScode replaces only some parts of VS.

- tracker1 6y agoLiterally the only reason I'll jump into it for C# projects now and then... Spend most of my time in VS Code for what I work on more, but will still open VS now and then when a C# solution is just a bit too much. It's gotten a lot better though.
- wvenable 6y agoVisual Code has a simpler interface because it has a fraction of the functionality. https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2001/03/23/strategy-letter-iv-bloatware-and-the-8020-myth/ https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2001/03/23/strategy-letter-iv... "80% of the people use 20% of the features... Unfortunately, it’s never the same 20%." > legacy technology like WYSIWYG form builders Kind of a weird statement to make -- who doesn't use WYSIWYG when working in XAML? Nothing legacy about that.
