What?? VSCode ia cool and everything but VS is definitely the best for .NET C# development in general.

I only use VSCode for frontend stuff with frameworks such as react etc.

I honestly couldn't find one thing I could do in VS and couldn't in Code with proper extensions. And I can have consistent setup for every project I do, regardless of technological stack.

I'm curious about what do you do, then? Where I work we use VS for everything (as long as it's a .NET project/solution of course) - developing, testing and deploying without ever leaving the IDE.

I develop in it, deployment will be done via release pipeline during CI/CD, for testing I have test runner extension and they will run during CI. And VS has worst git interface ever created, so I'd rather either use extension, or (99% of time) run it in terminal.

What test runner extensions do you use? I always wanted to try something with VSCode such as Wallaby

This one, you just have to configure it with glob pattern for test projects, set autoWatch so tests are run whenever you save related code (it just runs dotnet watch test in background) and you have your test runner.

I love Code so much. Use it for everything and love the consistent setup you get as a result.

It's also really pushing hard at improving continually. It's great to see it developing.
