### "You have almost everything you need to do your job under one software"

February 25, 2021

4.0

I don't have any regrets about using the Visual Studio Code an I believe I will return to this software in the future.

Pros

You have almost everything you need to do your job under one software. It is also popular which is great according to the variety of file format understanding

Cons

Too complicated, I believe developers could made the interface eseare for user, or create the 'pro developers mode" where you could get all the features

### "Nice User Interface"

July 11, 2020

4.0

Pros

There's not a steep learning curve and overall it's a nice, easy to use IDE for programming. Helpful if you want to share code and test it out.

Cons

I feel like compared to other IDEs I've used, its a bit more simple which is fine but at times can seem lacking. I'd prefer more features and I also prefer it when common commands are color coded or there's an auto-suggest while typing certain commands.
