- no_wizard 3y agoDoes this make VS Code a parity experience though, or is it always perpetually behind in some way that makes Visual Studio stand above?
- WorldMaker 3y ago"Parity Experience" is largely subjective, and I'm not sure that I can answer that. Especially with the complicated twist that "Visual Studio for Mac" for many was not close to "parity" with (regular) Visual Studio either. This announcement means VS Code plus C# Dev Kit (and optionally the MAUI extension) will be the only officially supported experience on macOS and Linux, nothing to directly compare "parity" to. Whether or not the experience feels "parity" on Windows versus (regular) Visual Studio may be irrelevant.
- qingcharles 3y agoIt totally depends on how you're using Visual Studio. If you're like me and use about 1% of the features, the VS Code probably covers all your bases.
