Like many editors, a number of files (to a max of 3) can be opened side by side. General editor features Auto-resize open panels Much of this is brand new in the recently released January preview. I’ve seen less about its strengths for CSS and HTML development, so I’d like to cover a few of these in this blog posts. The Angular team at Google even write Angular 2 in VS Code. Especially thanks to its fantastic Node debugger, and its JS IntelliSense (powered by TypeScript’s strength in tooling). It looks like it is picking up quite a following within the JS, Node.JS, Cordova, and Angular communities. Quite a bit has been made about VS Code’s suitability for JavaScript and Node.js. Why VS Code is great for front end dev / designers
It does use Electron (which started life as part of Atom) for the frame of the app, which allows it to be hosted as a cross platform app. It was also part of Visual Studio Online that was part of Azure Websites. VS Code is based on the Monaco editor that is also part of the F12 dev tools found in MS Edge and IE.
”Don’t use VS Code it’s just an open source fork of Atom!!! M$ are evil, they’ll even kick your dog. I‘ve even seen people run it on a Raspberry Pi! While Visual Studio is Windows only, VS Code works just as well on Mac, Windows, and Linux. “VS Code is cool and all but I’m on a Mac.” There are however some fairly common misconceptions I’ve seen around VS Code: There is even version control built in, so you can connect to GitHub and commit, sync and change branches without leaving the editor.
Additional languages can of course be provided by installing extensions from the marketplace. Things like IntelliSense (auto-complete suggestions), syntax highlighting, and even a debugger (for the latter two) are provided in the box. In fact, it is even written in HTML, CSS, SVG, TypeScript and Node.js. VS Code is mainly targeted around web, Node.js, and ASP.net developers. While it looks to strike that balance between power and flexibility, it provides a robust extension ecosystem for anything that doesn’t come in the box. It’s raison d’etre is to provide a keyboard focused lightweight editor that has less of the complexity of a full blown IDE, while trying to provide enough of the powerful features that developers love. Visual Studio Code is the new kid on the block in text editor circles.
