VS Code - A Clear Win

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

Not if you mean by that traditional desktop/server side development... But if you are on the web-track and moving away from Microsoft, than VS Code is the only real choice...

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 )

Confirmed, it's ranked #1 on Slant too: https://www.slant.co/options/5982/~visual-studio-code-review[^] :-\

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?)

Wise words as always, but it is even better to look how the ranking number compares with alternatives: https://www.slant.co/topics/4118/~c-ides[^] :-\

That's not an argument.

No, as it means that the other IDE's will slowly vanish, limiting our options.

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. Now to beat VS Code, something else will come up. And we'd be the beneficiaries, we'll have great new options option to pick from :D

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!
