I have completed quite reasonable projects using it. It makes coding efficient and enjoyable ----- ### "Clean interface and easy to use\!" — 5.0/5 > **Dan** | *27 March 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This app has a very clean interface and is intuitive to use. The settings are vast with lots of flexibility to configure the IDE to meet the requirements of your workflow. Very easy to use and a beautiful interface. > > **Cons**: Some settings can be hard to find, but the integrated search helps. Would be nice if more things were built-in such as a spell checker- though I believe this functionality can be added with extensions. > > I develop software in this IDE and it integrates well with Git. The interface is clean and the app is easy to use. ----- ### "VS Code Great for just Coding and Nothing Else" — 3.0/5 > **Robert** | *8 August 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the simple layout is and easy to use interface. It does not take up that much memory and developers can perform most functions using code. I also like the ability to launch code from PowerShell or Command Prompt. Another thing I like is it allows for old-school coders to go to something with no frills or thrills. This is good for someone who doesn't want to add additional packages or features to a program. > > **Cons**: Packages need to be installed via command prompt and ran through node.js to work within code. It takes too much time outside of developing. That is why I use standard Visual Studio because it is easier to add a NuGet Package from the VS interface than going through node.js. > > Basic coding and general development issues. Not my first IDE to turn to. Benefits: Fast and easy to use and quick loading time if you need something faster than standard VS IDE. ----- ### "VS Code Review" — 5.0/5 > **Stephen** | *7 March 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Some of the features that I like are the support for several programming languages, always up to date, and the integration capabilities with other third-party applications. I also really love the ability to switch the interface to dark mode. > > **Cons**: Not a lot of cons but I have noticed that the user interface is not very smooth, and you can get lost easily inside it. > > My overall experience has been very pleasant using Visual Studio. It has been a great editor I use to run and test any code, also good if I want to integrate it with other 3rd party application in my field ----- ### "Simple yet effective for writing code" — 5.0/5 > **Miranda** | *20 February 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has a good terminal for debugging and gives you error codes when your code does not work. it also catches structural issue to your code if you miss something. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it does not catch things so you cannot fully rely on this feature. > > Overall I will continue to use this product because it has proven to be a value to my ability to write code for simple web pages. ----- Page: 1 / 69\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ie/software/2035587/visual-studio-code?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ie/software/2035587/visual-studio-code) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
