I like to use VSCode to open C# or web.config files, basically any .net related file since its pretty quick and you get all the highlighting.
Good plan, I'll have to set it as default app for code files. VS is SOOOOOOOO slow when it's not already open.
VSCode team is killing it! Literally every month its tangibly making the product better. I still use Sublime occasionally on really large files as its performance is so good but for most things VSCode is my go-to!
Kinda surprised that every version bump gets a lot of love on HN [1]. How does it compare in terms of memory usage w.r.t sublime ? I've a sublime project open for months that has never had any impact on system performance and it stays within 70MB RAM. Is VS Code even close ?

For reference, I usually get 45 - 50MB ram usage on VS Code.
Also I discovered no way to obtain a usable local copy vscode's documentation without acquiring deep knowledge of the system. (The deep knowledge becomes necessary after I clone the repo at github.com/Microsoft/vscode-docs.)
In summary, I'm going to encounter many frustrations if I make a deep dive into vscode the way it exists today, and I should wait till someone adapts it for offline use; is that not true?

On what operating system and with how many tabs open if I might ask? With 6 tabs open (5 html files, 1 css file) and two extensions installed I get ~230 MB on Windows.
I think VS Code is pretty awesome. But I stopped using it because the monthly update experience on Ubuntu Linux pretty much sucks...by which I mean it mirrors the Windows update experience. One day I sit down to work and it's time to update and I lose fifteen or twenty minutes plus flow state going through the process (o.k. Windows with multiple reboots is actually noticeably worse often times (like just earlier this…
Hi brudgers, I'm on the VS Code team and I look after most of the Linux related stuff. I feel your pain as I've been updating my Insiders build nearly every day for the past 12 months. When you install this version, an apt repo and signing key will automatically be registered in your system which will enable auto-updates from here on. You can also install the repo manually if you want[1]. I've created an issue to fol…

On macOS, 9 tabs (js), 8 extensions. 55MB
Copy Syntax Highlight is huge. Years ago, I had written a utility to invoke syntax highlighting from text sources for use in PowerPoint presentations and Photoshop editing ( https://github.com/minimaxir/copy-syntax-highlight-osx/ ); I am very happy it is now obsolete.
Tested with VS Code 1.10 and hit a snag. On macOS, copying w/ syntax highlight from VS Code -> Mail works, but copying from VS Code -> Keynote or VS Code -> Pixelmator does not. However. VS Code -> Mail -> Keynote and VS Code -> Mail -> Pixelmator both work. Rich text is funny.

I used vs code to play around with typescript, which led me to check out the bot framework. I then built a prototype bot for work, showed it to my boss, and got the time to turn it into a product whose primary interface is skype. That product uses the luis natural language service, which we now pay for on azure. So, at least for me there was a strong network effect.
What product?
