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…
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.

A minimap! This was one of the last remaining Sublime features that I missed.
Can someone explain the attraction of the minimap? It's something I turn off in any editor. I can't rely on a postage stamp size picture of my code being unique enough between different parts of a file -- beyond perhaps the imports/constants/macros at the top, which you don't need help finding anyways. ctrl-f or 'go to definition' has been enough.
One of the most useful features for me (not sure if VS Code has this), but when I double-click/select a word, all other words with the same name are highlighted in the minimap. It's crazy useful for me, like a double-click/search/find all instances, it helps me jump around code very quickly.
Awesome work VSCode team!! I can't figure out how to enable TypeScript auto import - is it hidden behind a flag? Coming from IDEs, I've been waiting for this feature for a long time.
I work on TS and JS support for VSCode. Try moving the cursor into red squiggles for the missing symbol and then clicking on the lightbulb in the gutter or hitting cmd+period. This will bring up the quick fix menu for adding missing imports. We don't support automatically adding imports as you type, but this is something we are looking into. If you see any problems with the feature or have any suggestions on how it c…
Awesome job on JS/TS integration by the way. I've used Frontpage, Dreamweaver, Notepad++, Sublime, Atom, Vi, Webstorm, and Intellij in the past, and editing TS in VSCode beats all those other editors by a mile. Keep it up!!
The repo seems to be broken for me on Debian Testing. Maybe they should list "apt-transport-https" as a dependency.

I'm still looking for the auto-reload preview that is right beside the code which refreshes when you save.
If you have suggestions or ideas for a live preview, please file a feature request: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/new
