Visual Studio Code Reviews & Product Details

I use Visual Studio Code daily for writing Python scripts and data cleaning, and I love the extension library because it lets me add tools for Python and SQL, making my work easy. The ability to run Jupyter Notebook and see SQL results right inside the editor saves me time by not having to open other programs. I also find the initial setup simple and easy.

If I have too many extensions or large data files open at once, it feels lag. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual studio is amazing for development and maintaining pipelines. It is easy to use and works well with multiple coding languages which allows us to develop end to end solution in one code editor. The ai features are really good as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform doesn’t have features to manage azure and pipelines in the free version. It could have a bit more stability and recoverability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate using Visual Studio Code because it is simple, fast, and easy to navigate. The editor supports writing all kinds of code, lets you add helpful extensions, and enables you to run commands or handle Git operations right inside the program. It also helps you quickly identify and fix mistakes, and you can personalize the theme or layout to match your style. Since it runs on any computer, it truly simplifies the coding workflow and makes programming a more enjoyable experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a beginner, I found that setting up Visual Studio Code can be somewhat challenging due to the sheer number of available options and extensions. It often takes a while to configure everything to your liking. Additionally, installing too many extensions can cause the program to start up more slowly, which can be frustrating when you're eager to begin working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Visual Studio Code primarily for web and AI development with JavaScript, Python, and Ruby. I like that it is lightweight yet powerful and extensible. I appreciate that it opens almost instantly, allowing me to start coding right away and catch my thoughts whenever I get an idea. I also found the initial setup super easy. Visual Studio Code is the single most consistent environment for my setup, solving fragmentation issues for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the extension conflicts in Visual Studio Code. A bad update can break your entire system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

VS Code is great in that it can be used as a stand alone platform and/or opened from other applications (such as Power Pages) in its web-based version for editing. Given the many options for running a version of VS Code, we tend to use it frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

VS code to me isn't as nice as the original Visual Studio. It has a simplified interface, and easily integrates, but some times I find it's a lot more cumbersome to figure out some basic functionality. That could be because I'm so used to Visual Studio and the way it does things versus VS Code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like its simplicity compared with Visual Studio or any of the AI coding forks. Those options still seem to do a better job in some areas, but the sheer number of plugins and extensions really makes this the best tool around for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly don’t have any dislikes about Visual Studio Code. It does everything I need, and I can’t think of anything I want from it that it doesn’t already have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual Studio Code is the best development environment on the market. It’s free, open source, and supports multiple programming languages, which is essential for my work. Its code completion feature is excellent, and the extension ecosystem is impressive—developers can create their own extensions, and there’s a rich marketplace for downloads. I especially enjoy using Visual Studio Code for C and C++ development because finding a good C++ editor is not easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One drawback of Visual Studio Code is the absence of built-in visual design tools for desktop or mobile application development. In contrast, Visual Studio provides integrated UI designers and drag-and-drop components for creating rich interfaces. As a result, building desktop Windows applications in VS Code can be challenging and requires more manual effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
