Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Visual Studio Code

We use [Microsoft] Visual Studio Code when building or updating websites for clients. I can edit websites pulled from GitHub.

We changed from Sublime Text about three years ago. We used Sublime Text for nearly a eight years.

[Microsoft] Visual Studio Code is very similar to Sublime Text and the next generation of developers are using this over Sublime.

We moved from Sublime Text. Microsoft Visual Studio Code has similar features, such as a mini view of the document along the right side.

Microsoft Visual Studio Code is also freeware. Sublime Text is $80 per seat, so when you add team members the costs increase.

We also used Notepad++
