💻 VScode for maximum development productivity!

Like most developers I was a long time user of Sublime Text and it wasn’t until recently that I decided to give Virtual Studio Code a try after countless people raving on twitter about it.

After that first coding session I was a convert, here’s the highlights of what made me switch.

Integrated Software Version Management (SVM)
VS Code ships with a Git extension making it that much easier to manage version control.

Integrated Terminal
Super helpful to have embedded terminals and not have to switch application windows to re-run scripts or build commands. Built in terminal means less windows!

Programming Language Integrations
Hundreds of programming languages are support and many come with the default install, for example, JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, and HTML but more rich language extensions can be found in the marketplace.

Live Share Collaboration
Live Share is one of the coolest features in any IDE I’ve used. Easy real time co-working, language independent and ad hoc.

Huge Extensions “Marketplace”
VS Code extensions let you add languages, debuggers, and tools to your installation to support your workflow. You’ll spend hours looking for great extensions, there are so many!
