I like that Visual Studio Code is lightweight, which makes it easy to use without taking up too much RAM space, especially compared to other tools like PyCharm. It helps me tremendously in developing MCP (Model Context Protocol). I also appreciate the MCP Marketplace, which is a great resource and supports my development work.

1. It should have more agentic solutions similar to Claude code. 2. It should be easier to deploy or commit through the Visual Studio Code interface. 3. It would be very helpful if a team can have the same Visual Studio Code workspace. 4. The initial setup was pretty straightforward, but not as easy as Claude code.

I like best about Visual Studio Code is its lightweight performance and flexibility. It starts very fast compared to traditional IDEs, and I can customize it easily using extensions. I especially like features such as IntelliSense, built-in Git integration, debugging support, and the wide marketplace of extensions that help me work with different technologies like .NET, Angular, and AWS. It improves my productivity because I can manage coding, version control, and debugging all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Visual Studio Code is that it depends heavily on extensions for many advanced features. Sometimes managing multiple extensions can slow down performance or cause conflicts. Also, compared to full IDEs like Visual Studio, it has limited built-in features for large enterprise projects, so additional setup is often required. However, overall its flexibility still makes it very useful for my daily development work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The code editor is really useful for development and code management. It supports all the coding languages making it easy to use it for different projects and manage pipelines from one code editor. Easy to use code editor with amazing extensions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the various plugins that Visual Studio Code provides. The configurability it offers is great because everything can be configured as per your preferences. The initial setup was quite handy and not difficult to understand, which I really like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, the amount of information that Visual Studio Code has is a little cluttered. There are preferences that can be modified to fix this, but that's an extra effort. Also, window management and tab management could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using Visual Studio Code for coding, especially because of the great extensions and the easy UI. The easy shortcuts are a big plus for me. I find the Copilot extension really helpful for AI assistance while coding, and I also use Git extensions, which make it easy to push code to my repo. The initial setup is very easy, thanks to the well-written documentation with all the necessary instructions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes Visual Studio Code stops responding and the extensions don't auto-update, which can be frustrating. It should also add more validations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

VS Code is my primary IDE for everything from development to taking notes in Markdown and Dot, as I consistently return to it for its simplicity despite trying other alternatives.
