    "Amazing Performance yet Lite"

    Posted 2020-12-09

    Pros: I am a mobile developer and used to work on android studio for development but android studio used to be very harsh to my system. Then I switched to visual studio code, it was lite yet gave the same performance as android studio. User-friendly interface, a huge set of plug-ins, color coding, autocompletion these featured are so helpful for heavy coding and were all present in visual studio code.

    Cons: I faced no cons in this software, easy to install and use.

    Overall: As a developer, I loved this software, not only it is good for mobile development, it supports multiple programming languages. I am using it for a long time now, and haven't thought of changing it as it provides frequent support and nearly supports anything related to programming and development. If you want a fast and light platform for your work this is for you.

    "Advanced editor cum IDE"

    Posted 2020-08-29

    Pros: Visual Studio Code is more than a text editor and can be doubled as a development tool. It has a lot of features and integrations to be used as a dedicated IDE for Javascript and similar languages. It is quite lightweight and available free of cost.

    Cons: It misses out on useful IDE features like autocomplete to be considered as an all purpose development IDE.

    Interface needs to be simplified and made modular - a lot of icons make little sense to newcomers.

    Overall: Overall Visual Studio Code is a really good text editor and scripting tool which can be used for frontend development especially for beginners.
