List of my build systems, in this folder: tasks. VS Code comes with « tasks », or build scripts, mainly for Javascript development, with built-in support for npm and bower tasks, and it is easy to create and install new ones. VS Code (as with other good text editors), it is possible to build, run or compile your files automatically and easily. This page « tasks » also completely explains how to use and design build systems. List of my snippets, in this folder: snippets. This page « userdefinedsnippets » explains completely how these snippets have to be designed and how can they help you to be more effective. Keybindings.json are my custom shortcuts (I like ctrl+e to go the end of a line, like in Emacs, or ctrl+maj+e for beginning of a line). It can be done globaly, or project wise or language wise. Like (almost) everything else in VS Code, it’s easy to modify or add key shortcut for anything. This page « settings » explains how to configure of VSCode. To use one of these files, just copy it into User/. My configuration files, scripts and snippets of buildings for Visual Studio Code are all in the folder publis/VSCode. How I use Visual Studio Code ¶ My configuration ¶ This « awesome » list gives very good advices: Support for macros and plug-ins written in TypeScript ou Javascript, Search and replace with plain text or regular expressions, Selecting and editing in several sections of code in parallel (multi-cursor), Minimap: previewing entire file in a sidebar, Visual Studio Code incorporates most of the basic features of a text editor, including customizable syntax highlighting, auto-completion, a plugin system …īut that awesome text editor offers more advanced features, including: Well, it’s Microsoft, what were you expecting, GPL?! However, the software as distributed on the download website, comes with a restrictive license. Visual Studio Code is a completely free software, multi-platforms, produced by Microsoft, and its source code is open-source under the MIT License. The software is compiled to Javascript and packaged as an application with Electron. It is written in TypeScript and offers an API in TypeScript or in Javascript (with nodejs). Visual Studio Code is a text editor and source code available on multiple platforms.

Was my favorite editor from a few years back.Īfter 4 years of intensive use, I am slowly giving up on Sublime Text to only use Visual Studio Code, and like Edith Piaf « non, je ne regrette rien »… What is Visual Studio Code? ¶
