Visual Studio Code Reviews

-Source control - Highlights changed, deleted, added lines when you are working in a git repository. UI Controls to stage changes, view the current status of edited or staged files.

-Syntax highlighting, intellisense (suggest auto-completions for variables in scope, available methods based on MDN), direct links to documentation on many languages

- Plugins add support for more languages, local html servers, code snippets, extended source control visibility, remote collaboration and more

- Dozens of tremendously useful keyboard shortcuts, supports mulitiple cursors, VIM key bindings if you're that kind of person

- Integrated terminal with multiple shell options

- Many color themes so you can pick something that feels good for your eyes on your screen

-Frequent updates and bug fixes

There are some minor differences between the Mac and Windows versions, and I use both. On Mac, you can Cmd + Scroll to enlarge/shrink the code font size. In Windows, using the keyboard, the only option is CTRL +/-, which also makes the UI elements larger and smaller. I don't usually need those buttons to change size, just the code text.

This is an extremely well-featured code editor that also runs quickly. It is highly configurable and has an amazing plugin system with a huge selection of user-made plugins that can improve your workflow. Despite not being a fan of almost anything else Microsoft has ever designed or created, this software is an absolute TREASURE and the gold standard of code editors. Nothing comes anywhere near it in terms of competition in this space.

The only thing I find mildly annoying is the documentation. Everything is so heavily developer-centric, and the settings are stored in JSON files. That's fine, but most of the documentation makes a bunch of assumptions about your basic knowledge and doesn't spell out how to actually get things done. Sometimes I have to do a lot of googling just to figure out how to change a basic setting. This is somewhat of a minor complaint and often comes down to the plugin authors, but even Microsoft's own documentation when explaining how to turn new features on is often lackluster and requires a lot of pre-existing knowledge.

Comes with great intellisense for the languages I work on, support for tunneling to remote machine and forwarding ports easily, out of the box diff checker, git tool and wide range of plugins from microsoft and the community.

Intellisense sometimes uses huge amount of memory and sometimes intellisense does not work as expected in mac machine.

This software is very lightweight, I like it the most about this software. This software can be used even in low config computers. Anyone can use this software to develop any kind of software.

Sometimes IntelliSense does not work properly in some programming languages. This thing I like least about this software. Else everything is okay.

The huge abundance of extensions really provides users with what they need. You can keep it simple and vanilla or customize the way you use VS Code to suit your specific needs. The quality of these extensions is also great and installing them is as simple as clicking "Install". Sometimes VS Code is smart enough to recognize the programming language you're working with and intelligently provides a recommendation to install supporting extensions.
Having version control via GitHub, already built into VS Code is also a super useful feature.

Changing settings can be a bit difficult. There is a Command Palate where you can search for settings to change, but I find the use of it a bit daunting and I can understand if newcomers also find this a difficult but necessary tool to learn.

It is light, fast, and gets the job done. Its modularity is great and configured with the proper extensions, and VS Code becomes a complete IDE for your project, independent of programming language.

It is somehow tricky to configure for the upcoming user properly. The number of extensions that perform the same tasks is significant, making it challenging to select the proper ones.

VS Code is 100% Free, customizable and has a massive library of extensions to assist you with your projects and boost productivity . Your code is being checked for errors as you type and gives suggestions where possible.
Sync your configuration across devices

Settings files is somewhat difficult to find. And for some reason on every computer (windows) I have installed VS Code, I had to add the Roaming Folder to the PATH environment.

Out of the box the editing features are fantastic, including regex find and replace and multi-select. Adding to this you can customise and extend VS Code with thousands of different extensions for all your text manipulation needs. Code prediction, syntax highlighting and so much more. The ability to sync all your settings to the cloud makes things easy when moving between machines.

There is absolutely nothing I dislike about the software. It's so customisable that you can make it work how you need it to.

Visual Studio Code supports all major programming languages, and there are a lot of open-source free plug-ins to customize the IDE for a specific purpose. It's also got a very minimalistic, nice and clean user interface. It's easier to develop and deploy software applications using this IDE.

Visual studio code is not limited to a specific language, hence it's difficult to manage plugins when I use it for multipurpose for different programming environments say python, or C++. Also as the majority of the plugins are open-source, sometimes unusual temporary bugs in a plugin can make your life hell.

It is free and easy to use. It can be used as IDE or Notepad with intelligence

Memory & CPU usage. VS code uses lots of CPU & RAM. Because it is built using Electron which is simply a web framework.

First thing First, The Installation of VSCODE is really simple. The best thing of software is It's Light Weight Software and Easy to use!

Well, there is the only one Problem , I don't know if I am the only one facing this issue. I want to do Arduino Coding in VSCODE. I tried many Tutorials on YouTube and it's work but the problem is , Its literally hard to understand + Hard to do also Sometimes Arduino Library not Import correctly . If there is Something VSCODE team do about Arduino coding Then it will be better. and yeah there is one more problem. I noticed some code that throwing error in pycharm. vscode execute that code easily even if the syntax is wrong. it's happen rarely

I like so much about Visual Studio Code, but probably my favourite thing is the simple multi-cursor capabilities. I am currently working on a javascript project for my direct supervisor (not a computer guy) who asked me if I could come up with something to do XYZ Within a few days a colleague in HR (not a computer gal) asked me if I could come up with something that could do ZXY, so I said, "Providence!" and agreed. Well, the challenge became my stubborn insistence on identical architecture for both projects. Anyway, editing large arrays of filenames which I needed to keep organized numerically, by extension, in paths, etc was a breeze with this feature. I realize it is pretty common to robust code editors, but my complementary go-to Notepad3 doesn't, and I sure enjoy the VSC editor in contrast.

There really isn't anything I dislike, but what I like least is probably the seemingly-undercurated variety in 1) Extensions and 2) Intellisense. There are staggering redundancies and besides popularity of download I don't know how to select which Extension-That-Does-X from the many options. Trial and error is trying and irksome. Similarly, Intellisense loses significant value when the same text prompts too many options... all the more so when the one I want is way down the list. I imagine you can cull those lists, but I've spent way too much coding time fiddling with Preferences, custom keyboard shortcuts, etc.

Visual Studio Code as a code editor is the best I have ever known; it is a very powerful software that meets all the needs of a developer: it has a great file management system, integrates easily with Git, create a server to test the applications and see the changes live. It makes it possible for two or more developers to work on the same file and many more things.
It is possible to do practically anything necessary with Visual Studio Code because it has an almost infinite repertoire of third-party applications, to be able to satisfy every need. Downloading them is quite easy and fast, so many more possibilities are added to this software.
Its interface is very customizable, so it is possible to leave this working environment to the liking of each programmer. The colors and functionalities can be changed with the options that come from originaly and with the extra plugin that is downloaded.
The code editor is very intelligent; it predicts correctly. This makes work much more comfortable and avoids errors, as well as increasing the speed with which it is written.
It supports all the programming languages I know, that's impressive.

At first, it is a little challenging to use, it has many options. New users find it difficult at first to get used to it and to take advantage of the full potential of Visual Studio Code.
Every time you install it on a new device, you have to customize everything from the beginning. I would like you to have the possibility of having these configurations and plugins in a cloud account, to be able to give my mail and that the installation of everything I have is done automatically.
It consumes many resources, that's a problem for the PC's that are not very powerful. It leaves little space in the RAM and it diminishes very fast when extensions are installed. It is necessary to have a powerful computer to use all the functionalities.

The most impactful features include:

-Extremely lightweight and flexible: This makes installation and daily usage very smooth
-Extensions: There are thousands of extensions that can be added to Visual Studio Code to make it more powerful and get access to advanced features. Virtually all of these extensions are free to install
-Visual Studio Code can be used to code in a huge array of languages from .NET languages to even Python and JavaScript languages. As soon as it detects what language is being coded, Visual Studio Code is able to adapt itself to cater for that language
clean design
-Git integration is present so that one can upload and version the work that they do
-CLI: The Command Line feature is a powerful way to perform tasks and improve the coding experience
-PowerShell mode allows advanced scripting capabilities
-Available on Windows, Mac and Linux platforms

Users of Visual Studio or other text editors such as Atom Text Editor will have no issue working Visual Studio Code as it it extremely easy to use work with for different types of software projects.

Visual Studio Code integrates very well with different types of versioning platforms such as GitHub and GitLab as well as versioning technologies such as Git and SVN. It also integrates seamlessly with cloud platforms such as TFS and Microsoft Axure. In addition, Microsoft Office apps can be developed by using the Office Add-Ins.

Honestly, it is really difficult to say what is not likeable about Visual Studio Code as it just does everything so well. The fact that its completely free (as are the extensions), that even if there were features missing, it would be hard to criticise. Bu there just isn't anything that I can think of that is something I do not like about Visual Studio Code.

Ahh VS Code the perfect IDE i have found after countless trials of other IDEs it's easy to use, easy to integrate, and of cource easy to work on with countless addons from prefix checker to lint, been using it for past 3-4 years and everytime i hit my VS Code it's keep me interested in my work the theming capabilites were made for me as i am dark mode fanatic and using a material dark theme on VS Code is a gift from the heavens itself. I highly urge everyone who codes to use VS code atleast for once believe me you guys won't be dissappointed.

apart fromsome missing addons for famous languages like php laravel, and others? nah how can someone not like this amazingly creafted software that helps them code better and faster? i can't and will not have any least liked things about this.
