Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Visual Studio Code

We use Microsoft Visual Studio Code for coding all kinds of software and web applications. From building web forms to coding software and mainly PHP because that is not supported by Visual Studio IDE. So, this is the best fit for that. It is free so that is also a big plus.
  • Works with all coding languages
  • Free to use
  • Easy to integrate with git
  • I wish it was easier to compile code
  • Can't think of many issues, it is honestly very good
  • Light weight
  • Support all type of coding including PHP
  • Free to use
  • This is the go to IDE for me
  • Super easy and free!
  • Basic and powerful done right
Microsoft Visual Studio Code wins hands down when it comes to light, easy, free yet super powerful. This is the perfect balance for that. If you need to manage a complete end to end project with team collaboration I would recommend Visual Studio IDE or Eclipse if you need to compile Java.

Did implementation of Microsoft Visual Studio Code go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft Visual Studio Code again?

Yes

It is best if you need a light weight IDE to manage and write code, edit a single file on the fly or even store some note. Super light and support all coding languages syntax. It is not the best choice if you want to manage a full C# project for example In would use Visual Studio for that.
