I use VS code for JS/Python/C . I want to get rid of Visual Studio for C#. Well, I do have some winforms/wpf stuff, so I will say eventually get rid of it.
So I worked on some <1000 line projects with it yesterday. I was not too impressed, I know it is a text editor and not an IDE, but the JS functionality is much better. Maybe I was spoiled and had high expectations from Javascript.
-I could not get launch.json and the debugger to switch projects. It seemed to only want to run my first project. Even though I selected the project in the dropdown when I hit run. I tried resetting the editor. Ended up adding writelines and just dotnet run to debug.
I will try messing with it again today. Any suggestions are welcome.
-The C# intellisense is mediocre. Visual Studio is better in my opinion.
-Nuget is done thru an extension, if you don't want to do it manually, I guess a minimal, passable experience. I do not really need tools, I just look up what I need, so not a deal breaker.
-Looked for an extension to configure options in csproj, I could not find it.
-I did like the debugger, seems a bit lighter and faster than Visual Studio. I am using Core 5.0. Sometimes browsing complex objects in Visual Studio can get a bit clumsy.
Not sure if Microsoft wants to make the C# in code TOO GOOD, afterall, they do not want to hurt sales on their Visual Studio IDE :lol:. But overall, I will be using it going forward if I can.
