I love the updates the VSC team has been putting out, and I know this is related to Electron issues, but I really wish they would add High DPI support. Without it, this weird situation exists where Microsoft's Visual Studio Code looks really blurry on Microsoft's Surface Pro, because Microsoft Software isn't using Microsoft's API.

#112Opening a newly cloned Chromium repository in ~3s is very impressive to be honest.
I really want to be able to use it for my work but I can't unless it's about as fast as Sublime Text.

#113VSCode + 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…

#114Earlier quoted context omitted.
Try WebStorm. I'm surprised at how few people use it, given the quality of the autocomplete and code assistance (and the fact that it works just as well with ES6 as it does with TypeScript!)
Does WebStorm still maintain their own version of TypeScript language tools? Back in the 1.0 days they did, and it was a mess. Stuff that would work in Visual Studio and with tsc at the command line wouldn't work in WebStorm. That said, love Jetbrains. Have a Ultimate license for Java.

#116Love vs code for Go. I dropped sublime immediately.
any particular extensions you recommend for working with Go?
I believe you just search extensions for Go, and you're solid.

#117This package suffers from what I like to call the paper.pdf problem - very different files, rather uselessly (although not entirely illogically) given identical file names: ~/Downloads % md5 VSCode* MD5 (VSCode-darwin-stable(1).zip) = b33b479ffa87052d05ed0141e64ad8a8 MD5 (VSCode-darwin-stable.zip) = 86f129fe0d75c195370da4b46814389c ~/Downloads % ls -l VSCode*.zip -rw-r--r--@ 1 tom staff 49908098 8 Sep 23:04 VSCode-da…
what do you mean, can you explain? isn't that correct behavior if you rename the file?

React may not have "native" support for TypeScript, but in combination with TypeScript using React is so much more fun, if only for the fact that your props can actually be typed and checked at compile time.
Re: Visual Studio Code 1.5
#119It'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…
Why would you use VS Code (even with vim keybindings) over vim? Is there something you can't do in vim but can in VS Code?

I've tried VS Code, but prefer WebStorm.
