I used Homebrew Cask to install it: $ brew cask install visual-studio-code I’m certainly interested in how VSCode handles Python and C/C++, but I’m not going to explore it in this post. I’ll be looking at this from the standpoint of a JavaScript developer, so I’ll write “WebStorm,” but I really mean “a JetBrains IDE.”
How smart is it about types and code completion?.What’s the story on inline errors or warnings?.How does the VCS (Git) integration differ?.What’s debugging look like? How’s the source map support?.What’s the analog of a “Run Configuration?”.Does it support my key bindings, or will I need to relearn everything?.I'll answer some questions for myself-and, with luck, maybe I can save the JetBrains-faithful some time and energy. Something’s up, and I’m going to get to the bottom of it. I’ve been a faithful user since P圜harm’s release, seven years ago.Īs of late, if I’m watching a presentation, and someone is writing code in an editor, that editor is almost always VSCode.
