It is, because VS Code is not an IDE. Visual Studio is an IDE and IDEA is IDE, but VS Code is code editor. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but there is a difference between those two. I'm yet to see an IDE which can debug C# like VS.

What is the different between code editor and IDE? "catching unused promises"?

No, but I've used IDEA. You claim IDEA is an IDE and VSCode is not, and I'm trying to understand what's there so special that categorizes them like that
