is there any reason to use visual studio code rather than the visual studio editor that comes with the community edition? are they actually different?
i have not installed 2018 so i don't know if the new visual studio removed the editor, but i always thought the visual studio code was the same editor but standalone from the visual studio which is the full IDE.
ps: you mention IDE stands for internal development environment. I think the I letter actually stands for integrated,
Visual Studio Code is just a bit simpler. Less bloat and is just a bit easier to use. A lot of people really enjoy using it. I'm not using a lot of the features that some of the other Visual Studio versions offer so VS Code is all I need. Yes you're right about "integrated", must've been thinking internal when I was recording.
