The only feature that still keeps me from using it is that the debugger won't work when the app to debug is running inside a docker container.
Does anyone know if this will be ever be possible?

#52I actually visited the VS Code team at Microsoft a few weeks ago for a product-research day where they brought in developers from small teams from around the US. I had heard that this was the plan, and I'm excited to see that it has since happened. They showed some compelling features (still not-yet released) that I think would bring this well-beyond a simple Atom competitor. Once they bring the debugging and linting…
They acutally demoed Go debugging in the Connect conference keynote today [1], together with the open-source announcement. It has been implemented as part of an extension written by someone inside of Microsoft, if I remember correctly (support for extensions was also announced).

The Go extension is also available as an open source project, at https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-go. We've integrated a number of tools built by the Go community, including the Delve debugger, and we are contributing to these projects. We plan on adding other languages as well, including Python - but if you're interested in building extensions for other languages, we'd like to hear from you.

#53Has anyone spent a lot of time with VS Code? I tried it a while back when it was first announced and have not found a reason to re-visit it yet. At the time it felt like a sublime-text alternative instead of an IDE (was it always positioned to be just an editor?) Always great to see more options though.
It is far from perfect, but it proved to me you can build a modern editor on top of chromium without killing my battery and cpu, unlike, you know, atom.

#54Earlier quoted context omitted.
You mean like Microsoft Disk Operating System from back in the day?
Amusing counter argument, but the pendant in me wants to point out that the DOS-name was inherited from the SCP product MS bought[1] rather than a naming convention MS created [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86-DOS
I wouldn't comment on any other word, but it's "pedant". :)

It's pretty good, at least on OS X. Clean, fast, doesn't suck down your battery like Atom.

#56I really hate how MS names things. Microsoft SQL Server, or as most people call it SQL Server. I read the title to this post as Visual Studio code is now open-source - but it's not. The product some genius called Visual Studio Code has been opened. I'm really surprised Windows isn't called Microsoft Operating System, or Operating System for short.
Eh honestly, I prefer the naming of things "what they are" as opposed to these open source names. Sometimes I wonder if ruby programmers aren't eating enough. Building an API might mean you use Cucumber, and Grape.

#58Who cares, VS Code is nothing more than a fancy text editor. Not and IDE.

#59I love this new Microsoft.
"New Microsoft"? That's an overstatement.

The Go debugging integration with Visual Studio Code is built on top of the Delve debugger, but exposed through the integrated debugging UX of VS Code. We're working with the Delve developers on a few things to help make this experience great - including Windows support (https://github.com/derekparker/delve/pull/276).
