    For last 7 years, our company's open stack teams had been using different IDEs. Right from Eclipse to Notepad++, (Truly so many of them). The environment used to sound very alien. Now in couple of years, one by one, all them have moved to Visual Studio Code. Is this not awesome? The whole of them - including Php, Node, Python. All using this now. & they seem to like it much. It's definitely helping to relate/connect better. It doesn't give you the "alien" feeling now. (But VS Code, as such was feeling alien to me , just got used to it well :-D )

        Yep, MS was deprived of such a massive win, for a very long time. The cool things like C#/Visual Studio did win hearts, but it's within the MS-dev community. Going across the boundary and winning there is an achievement. :thumbsup: Azure is catching up with this trend too. More people talking about Azure now, even in open-stack teams. :-D The only big guy left out in the cold is Windows-10 :sigh:

            There's pretty much nothing but vim visible from my cubicle. I can't imagine VS Code getting much traction in the linux dev communities

                      But, as always, if someone is thinking of migrating to new tools, they should focus primarily on the cons[^] of the migration, and not on on-line "Hey, I like it!" comments. Nothing is perfect for every circumstance. (Where's an idiotic web journalist with a "bird in the hand" article, when you need one?)

                            If it's Eclipse, I would definitely want it to vanish. :rolleyes: Look at it positively, It's a competition. The one that does it best, will get the user base.

                                        There's pretty much nothing but vim visible from my cubicle. I can't imagine VS Code getting much traction in the linux dev communities

                                        I'm using it on linux for C, and it's not so good: 1. trouble differentiating C from C++ (even when it's a .c file) 2. intelisense - to many matches and (unlike in studio) it shows no affinity to prefer the last used match or/and locals 3. seems to ignore/misunderstand some include files (ex. everything defined in signal.h shows up as undefined) 4. often wrong choices in conditional compilation blocks so even more not-undefined's 5. no autoindentation of code blocks - just follows the last line plus points: pretty decent code coloring, and it's not vi[m]... are we in insert mode? doh!

                                          Like we have so many options in operating systems? :)
