Anyone use VS code for Unreal Engine 4 development? Long shot but figured I'd ask.
It's great for Unity. Not sure about Unreal 4

#192VSCode + TypeScript is an amazing experience for us poor JavaScript developers that never enjoyed proper autocomplete and refactoring in our editors. Writing JavaScript feels like writing random bash scripts with no help now. TypeScript is freaking awesome and you should start using it! :)
Typescript is great and is "natively" included in Angular2, however it's not the case for react and vue.js ecosystems. Tried to use/learn typescript, in the meantime I wonder if there is a document showing how to use certain "safe" javascript along with its strict mode to make javascript secure enough so that I don't need use Typescript? i.e. how about using a subset of native javascript with certain rules that can a…
If you think learning Typescript is too much hassle for JavaScript "safety" you gonna have a heart attack when you find out about Elm[1] (hint: pure functional programming)

How do you connect "carussell" to https://github.com/aioutecism/amVim-for-VSCode ?
I connected carussell to the crussell maintaining some fork here: https://gitlab.com/crussell/amVim as pointed elsewhere. It would certainly be possible that he contributed code to the project given that.
Shocker: when I reviewed the code for both projects, I sent fixes to the one that I found to be of high quality. Why is this surprising?
And no, I'm not "maintaining some fork"--there's no way to submit patches on GitHub, and the only way to get changes in for most projects hosted there is to throw up a copy of your work as a remote for someone to pull from. My disdain for this workflow is already well-documented.
Re: Visual Studio Code 1.5
#194It's unfortunate to see that the group who named their extension "Vim" is being recognized as more or less the official recommendation for Vim emulation, despite being not so good. The last time that I did a survey of feature completeness, performance, and code quality, the author of the amVim extension had a much better showing across the board--and more active involvement in VSCode extension APIs themselves. Percep…
Hi there. I'm one of the authors of the Vim plugin. I'd highly encourage you to try it out again. It has improved quite substantially in the last few months. Nowadays we have a much larger range of commands. We've got visual block mode, incremental search, vimrc support, marks, registers, proper vim undo support, very broad motion support, and quite a bit more. Let me know what you think!
I think you should've gotten permission from the Vim folks if your colleagues were going to crib the logo and project name for your own use.

Not super relevant to the topic, but what's with Xamarin not supporting what is arguably the most important platform? This seems like a huge weakness, especially when you can now build a React app that renders natively on web and mobile thanks to React Native.
My impression is that Xamarin is designed to suck dollars out of corporate enterprise users who need to do something with mobile devices and can pay big bucks for Xamarin because it allows their C# devs to make a mobile app in short order. It saves them in the long run.
Isn't Xamarin free now?

#196I'm still holding out for Visual Studio for Mac.APP, not crummy Xamarin or a glorified text editor.
What would full Visual Studio get you that VSC does not? IMO, the main awesomesauce of VS, and its advantages over other IDEs and editors, are 1. The first-in-class debugger 2. Intellisense 3. Really good support for Windows-specific technologies like Win32 and COM VSC has 1 and 2 either now, or on its roadmap. As for 3, why do you want to develop for Windows on a Mac? I guess I don't understand what you need that VS…
Visual GUI editor (though that was a bigger deal in the past)
First-in-class C# support
Refactors
Object browser
Hit "F1" to get help on that function
Search everywhere
Templates / Code library
MSDN is very thorough (if wordy), lots of examples and documentation

I use VSCode at work a bit; it's faster than Atom but not as fast as sublime. It's a decent code editor, I guess if I was full-on JS I'd love it but it's still kinda eh
Lots of good progress though; I definitely have my eye on this one

For neovim users, you can get something almost comparable with deoplete [1], tern_for_vim [2], and ternjs-deoplete [3]. I set this up recently and have been very happy with the results. This also supports ES6 and JSX in case you use either of those. [1] https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim [2] https://github.com/ternjs/tern_for_vim [3] https://github.com/carlitux/deoplete-ternjs
I've been using YCM for autocomplete so far. How does deoplete compare with YCM if you have used that in the past. I did install term_for_vim recently but haven't really configured it much.

#198Grrr... seeing some issues since 1.5 wrt corporate proxy and ssl signing.
Same; can't load any extensions. Issue has been posted: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/11702

> On this day and age many don't want to pay for tools. Strange logic: if everyone followed that train of thought, we'd all settle for whatever quality tools are available so long as the price is $0. I'd much rather pay for a valuable tool than use a subpar free tool.
It's a common fallacy to associate quality with price. Generally yes, but not always. Sublime Text certainly isn't 70 dollars better than Atom or VS Code.
That depends on how valuable your time is.
Are you working on a project that makes money? Will a productivity tool increase your productivity by half a percent? Then that tool is worth hundreds of dollars. If not thousands.

#200In fact Netbeans is very good at JavaScript and web page edit, it has the most intelligent autocomplete and refactoring I ever seen, it is also free and open source.
