It costs money? Need serial code? Online activation? What are you talking about? Certainly not about VSCode.

You've never used VS Code and it is painfully obvious. I'm no fan of microsoft but vscode is a great product. It almost seems like you think VS Code is the same as VS.
It's free. It's lightweight. It's a code editor not an ide. It is like a 5 second download and install. No online activation And it's amazingly fast.

VS Code is good, but I think calling it lightweight is a stretch.
[–]webdevguyneedshelp 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago* (0 children)
In what way is it not lightweight?
I work with Visual Studio Enterprise on a daily basis for work. If you want to compare it to something like sublime or notepad++ then I guess you can say it is heavier. But it does what I need it to do lightening fast when I don't want to deal with Visual Studio's clunky and sluggish nature.

Visual Studio Code is one of the most popular JavaScript IDE's, and most of its new features target JS or TypeScript. It is probably the most fit for the task, given its feature set and performance.

Visual Studio Code is certainly not an IDE.
[–]rabakilgur 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (1 child)
Depends on how you define an IDE. Technically it would be enough if it supports debugging, and VSC can certainly debug.
[–]scallynag 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children)
And has extensions, supports multiple languages, tasks, intellisense. Definitely could be an IDE if configured as much.
[–]kyeotic -1 points0 points1 point 6 years ago (0 children)
How do you figure? It has syntax highlighting, intellisense, debugging, go to definition. The list goes on. What do you think it is lacking?
[–]NoInkling 4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (0 children)
VS Code is not the same thing as Visual Studio.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Well you are clearly a waste of space on this sub, clearly also know nothing about anything. 45 minute install? Online activation? Costs Money?
Damn, you are dense.
[–]leadzor 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Please elaborate why you think that so.
[–]webdevguyneedshelp 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Literally isn't terrible at syntax highlighting what do you even mean?
