Emacs doesn't do go to definition? Eeek
Visual Studio Code itself doesn't either.
Umm yes it does.. @ symbol accessible via keystroke

Oh, not sure how I missed this! I'll have to try it out EDIT: On trying it out, it seems to have reasonable support for most of the editing functionality, but the shortcuts for handling split buffers (C-x 0, C-x 1, C-x o, etc.) is completely non-existent. I'm unsure right now whether I'd be able to define them on mine own or whether I'd be willing to stick with it if I couldn't.
If it's missing functionality you need you could request by filing an issue to https://github.com/hiro-sun/vscode-emacs
It turns out the changes were pretty trivial (partially due to vscode apparently not allowing vertical split), so I just put them in my keybindings.json.

Do you have any experience with rtags? Is irony really better at auto complete?

As a long-time emacs user, I have recently taken a look at VSCode, and while I am not ditching emacs anytime soon, the experience was a lot more pleasant than I would have expected. I plan to use it for some toy project over the holidays, see how that works out.

That is something I have missed in pretty much every IDE I have ever used, except OpenWatcom's, which allows to use vi-keybindings. (Okay, so Eclipse supports Emacs-ish keybindings, too, but it felt really weird using those.)
I think, there is a plugin/package for VSCode that implements emacs-style keybindings, but I could not get it to work properly. :-(

For the IDO part: If you open a folder in VS Code, then you can use Ctrl+P or Ctrl+T (I keep forgetting which), and that allows you to type part of the file name, and then it will find it. The best is, it searches the entire subtree of the folder you opened.
I use this often in vscode. It's good for finding files but ido-mode is everywhere.

How does it compare to resharper C++ in case you have tried both?
