The Python coding experience in VS Code is very nice. Regarding to debugging Python code, can't say much about it just because I started using it yesterday. Even so, was a pleasant experience too.
When I open a single code file with VS Code, I'd like the workspace to automatically get populated with the other files in the same folder, or at least have a simple option to do so. I like that VS Code use the folder structure instead of a special project file like .sln, but this is a small annoyance since I often open single files before deciding that I want to continue to work on the whole project.
Make it easier to run Python code. I don't think there's an easy way to run my script and see the output in a terminal without filling in some json file? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I'd really like support for Jupyter notebooks. They're already web based, so it makes sense.
For new users or users that only use it rarely it seems a bit opaque with json based settings, and a lot of things hidden behind a command palettes. It's great to be able to do everything with the keyboard, but maybe surface some of the things in a GUI too?
Visual Studio with Python tools are my IDE of choice for Python, so there's every chance the VS Code will become a great Python development tool too.
How does VS Code compares to Atom? If I'm not mistaken they're both written in Electron, right?

I looked into it, but it wasn't obvious how to: (i) make Ctrl+K put the deleted line into the paste buffer. (ii) allow repeated applications of Ctrl+K to delete multiple lines.
Is Ctrl+X what you're looking for? Maybe you can change the binding of that.
Looks like this editor is constantly improving. Anyone have an opinion on how this editor compares to webstorm? Suppose I'll have to just give it a try to find out.

I don't think I've ever dragged and dropped selected text in my entire life. I didn't even know that was a thing one could do in any editor. Does dragging and dropping move the text, like a cut/paste, or does it copy the text? When would you use that? Is it faster/easier to use the mouse for this than Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V (or y/p in vim)?
Ctrl-DragSelection (Windows) duplicates the dragged text without overwriting the clipboard text , which is sometimes handy. It's Alt-DragSelection on OSX.
For non-X users who have no idea what I'm talking about: In the traditional mouse button setup for X Window System, you can select text, and then paste it by clicking the middle mouse button.
I don't know if I can train my hands to be able to select/drag with a trackpad quickly...just trying it now seems very clumsy and time-consuming. But, I do often wish for the ability to copy without overwriting the clipboard.
I always had Visual Studio for .Net development and for everything else it changed. First Notepad++, then Brackets, Atom, then Sublime Text and since 4 months it's always been Visual Studio Code. It's nuts how fast Visual Studio Code is evolving. Good job Microsoft, developers and the community. My only fear is that the application would become bloated, but for now it's still blazing fast. Even when i have to much ex…
We're very committed to fight bloat, as with any large software project its always a risk so please help keep us honest
I'm not talking about the IDE, the IDE runs great. Referencing Visual Studio as bloated was not my intention, i was afraid that Visual Studio Code got bloated. The only thing is that Visual Studio updates always take a long time, that's probably the only thing that is troubling me sometimes. It's been 2:30 hours updating now : https://gyazo.com/b8718354c629fbd6e0c4867dfb95e0eb
I also know Visual Studio is a very big application ( i personally use mostly Asp.Net in combination with c# and Cordova) with many developers ( i heard 1200 developers in a talk with a Product Manager of Visual Studio). But 2:30 hours updating is just a very long time :)
