Have you tried Qt Creator? Its really good for normal C++ development and even better for Qt specific development.
A colleague uses it on OSX, and it's awful: unstable, crashes, hangs during debugging, the debugger doesn't always update the displayed values, doesn't grok auto declarations, etc. So far, Netbeans is the best free C++ IDE I've tried.
Number one drawback of VSCode, for me, is poor vim keybindings, especially visual mode. If that was fixed I'd use it extensively.
But Vim/Vi don't just have keybindings; they have modes. Emulating editor modes is a significant undertaking. It's not just a change to the settings file -- it requires a lot of programming work. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Microsoft to emulate Vim modes in VS Code. A plugin is your best bet.
I'm not particular about what editor you choose. I've been looking for a good JS IDE. Webstorm is of course the only real player in this space (with an amazing IDE) but it's pricey. I've been watching VSCode with great interest. However, every time I try the editor it's a huge letdown. Buggy, crashy, shitty and weird interface (they have completely made up their own tabbing/splitting paradigm for example, which is bu…

Me too. I was a bit skeptic at first. Been a long time vim user but wanted to try something new. I now use it to code Python (I write a lot of it). It works very nicely. So much that I'm in the process of making it the official company -wide text editor for python at work.
As part of the Visual Studio Code effort, the .net intellisense was split into a stand lone server to be used from any editor. So I'm going the opposite way, hoping to do more and more in vim and less in VS.

I guess it's open source though so if anyone's really bothered they could fork it and take all that stuff out.

How did you manage to leave vim keys so easily?
I'm sure it's a great editor but it's, to me at least, a bit weird to have to read a privacy statement for an editor to work out what it's actually sending home. https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/dn948229 I guess it's open source though so if anyone's really bothered they could fork it and take all that stuff out.
What would be some of the cool features that only exist on VSC that Sublime doesn't have?

Do you have more details on this? I'd love to be able to use the .NET intellisense in something other than Visual Studio. Thanks!
