Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Visual Studio Code

From developing code to managing commits on GitHub, Microsoft Visual Studio Code saves the day.
One of the best platform to develop in that provides multiple plugins for making life simple. Whatever language you need, Microsoft Visual Studio Code will support it for sure and if not, there will be multiple plugins for the same. There is code completion, error highlights, code suggestions, syntax highlights, and an inbuilt console. It is really a developers dream. Used almost by every developer and is appreciated by everyone.
  • Syntax highlighting, code completions.
  • Plugins for various additional support and extending its functionality.
  • GitHub Integration.
  • Error when handling and inbuilt console.
  • Some plugins are not easy to configure.
  • Sometimes when using auto format plugin, it makes code behave improperly. It adds additional line breaks in areas not needed.
  • Initially a bit difficult to understand how some functions work.
  • Made development faster.
  • Made collaboration better.
The reason for this rating is because,
  • It is easy to use
  • It supports many languages
  • It helps in development in almost every use case
  • It is easy to set up and mostly every feature is easy to use
  • It provides additional plugins for better integration
Customer support is somewhere where someone might face some problems. Sometimes for certain features/plugins, there is no proper documentation. You need to write emails and wait for followups in case of errors.
It is more advanced, it has more features and is a lot better than its competitors in terms of everything.
It stands the best among all the similar software of this type.
NetBeans, Notepad++, Postman
It is something which a developer can use for any use case may it be web development, react-native and what not. They can make some improvements to include additional features for SpringBoot and other advanced Java support which will make it even better. Nevertheless, Microsoft Visual Studio Code is a flexible program that can nearly be used anywhere.
