vscode just keeps winning. Who cares if it is written in electron (we love to hate electron). Cross Platform, 100% FREE. Open Source and so much support. Tons of good plugins already. Keep up the good work vscode team!!

It's a good example of how Electron is no excuse for sluggish apps: VSC is very snappy until you start getting really huge files. Don't blame the runtime for your crappy code!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'm running MacOS Sierra and upgraded today, no issues so far.

It's supposed to be an archive when I download it, but it's an application. When I double click it I get "The application “Visual Studio Code” can’t be opened.". It won't open in Archive Utility because it's an app. I can run Electron from within it's package, and it opens VS Code, but that seems janky.
