Microsoft Azure Developer Tools Reviews

This is like the best IDE out there that supports multiple coding languages. It's so easy to integrate different coding languages using their extensions. This is the only Code Editor I use on a daily basis for all my coding needs. What's even better is that I can use Github Co Pilot which is an AI Powered assistant that helps me code!

Visual Studio Code is my favorite code editor. The most important thing is that it is lightweight and has so many powerful features.Because of that, VS Code does not take much RAM and runs smoothly on any device. It supports multiple programming languages and has a vast range of extensions. Integrations with GitHub help me code efficiently with my colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a vast marketplace of extensions. If you search for some extensions, there can be a few extensions that are identical. So you need to install plugins with care. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how visual studio makes it easy to find and fix mistakes in code. Its simple design and support for many programming languages help developers , whether they are beginners or experts,work faster and more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find visual studio can be slow to open and use a ot of computer power,which can be annoying. Its comprehensive toolset requires some time to explore and master,which can be a learning opportunity for those eager to expand their skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. very easy to use. like in other code editors i have to manually save file before running the code. but vs code auto save feature. which makes it very convenient for for regular use.

2. i use it everyday.

3.the best feature is themes. it provides a large range of cool themes. that makes a coding environment and motivate to work more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes it generates wrong output. but this problem solves after compiling again.

i have never use its customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Smooth and good for coding in programming language in PHP and for databases connection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe when I'm using this app for my low spects can't code faster but for now i have a pc and laptop can code faster just because you need to upgrade your pc to code smooth in all programming language Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like visual studio as a software developer. Specially Git and Plugins section.

They provide different git section and show file changes. I am using so many IDE's but Git section is amazing and user friendly in visual studio. If they can do so some changes in UI then it looks more attractive.

For plugins section important thing is that you just install any plugin and enjoy their functionality for any development language. Every language have different plugin as per developer need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Complex to change theme, Font, Style. I think they can give one section in left or right side and provide all important settings on that so user can easily navigate and change any setting easily currently its to complex.

2. They can provide option to add git account from left side git section so user can easily add account.

3. In git section they can provide more options icons like cherrt pick or create patches. So as per developer its easy and easly use that functionality Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual Studio Code is, first and foremost, free. That is a major advantage over the alternatives. At its base, it's a very simple text editor, but when applied the right plugins, it can become a powerful development environment. I am using VSCode for both Javascript/Typescript development and for Python development. The base editor is simple to use and understand and very lightweight.

It is based on Electron, runs on all major operating systems, and supports a web-only version. Personally, I am using VSCode on Mac with Apple Silicon and the performance is quite nice, given that it's all Electron below. I specifically enjoy the extensibility and even for very basic needs I am using many plugins (Git, Docker,JS Debugger, etc). A main advantage in my opinion is the launch speed: from click to full-up it takes 8 seconds on my machine, which might seem like a long time, but compared to other systems it is much faster.

Having worked with other IDEs, I am not keen on the default key bindings and extension shortcuts. I also feel the learning curve for VSCode is steeper than other tools.

In addition, and most importantly, I do not feel there is enough control by Microsoft on the extensions published in the extension repository and there have been some previous cases where malicious extensions have been found. But if you bear that in mind and keep a careful flow, you should be fine.

A more important downside, in my opinion, is the need to "build your own suite" where you need to manually pick and choose from hundreds of available plug-ins, which can be confusing and time-consuming. I usually prefer to have someone provide me with a pull "python suite" that has everything I need in one go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm a software dev and VSCode has become an indispensable part of my workflow. What I like most? everything. Its ability to handle large projects with countless files while maintaining exceptional performance. The editor remains responsive, even when working on monolith projects with complex dependencies or giant codebases. The mini-map is nice, so if you have been a fan of Sublime then you won't be lost. Also, with the seamless integration of keyboard shortcuts, you can become incredibly efficient by never lifting fingers from your keyboard.

But truly, what I like most about VSCode is that there seems to be an extension for everything, you can customize your environment tailored to your every need. Extensions like GitLens make version control straightforward by providing visual indicators for changes, commit history, and author insights. AI tools, such as Copilot, take productivity to another level by suggesting code snippets and solutions as you type, or AmazonQ help integrate cloud-specific solutions, and code generators. But also, there is a small extension for any productivity improvement you can imagine, few things I have installed: a color picker while coding CSS, a live preview for frontend projects, batch file renames, char count, and also several code snippets and boilerplate generators for HTML, Ruby, Python, etc. I have seach and found even a SUM extension for selected numbers on a file...

Finally, one thing I really like about VSCode is how it works with modern frameworks and technologies. It provides excellent support for building apps with Flutter, React, and Ionic, among many others. From setting up a project to debugging and testing, I can control everything directly from the editor. Whether it’s running a Flutter emulator, managing a React build process, or deploying an Ionic app, VSCode handles it all seamlessly.

Its integrated a terminal, debugger, and task runner.

Summary, it is a powerhouse for developers, and you will enjoy working on your products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been testing latetly the AI Copilot extensions and all Copilot recent releases for VSCode. I would had loved if it was fully integrated with the IDE, currently only supports the file you have openned, Copilot will give you great code completitions suggestions, but it lacks context on your entire openned project. At this point developers are moving towars an AI asisted development environment, so IDEs such as Cursor and Windsurf that are actually based on VSCode are having such a great adoption and a huge advantage than VSCode Today. Although I think VSCode is moving to the right direction, I think it is moving slowly considering Copilot is also from Microsoft.

I love how you can extend VSCode and pretty much customize it for your preferable development environment, it is a manual that by now it should have been part of a sign up onBoarding wizard, the IDE asking you what tech stack you use and/or pick it automatically from your openned project and automatically install the extensions you need. It lacks that level of sofisticated recommendation. And, if you check the actual Recommended Extensions most cases are not even close to what we need on a project. Definitely I do not like how the actual Extensions recommendations works.

One other thing I don't like much is how complex configurations are required for native mobile developmebt, I would still recommend Xcode and Android Studio for native Swift and Kotlin. Example, for native development you don't have yet a way to build the apps and run infrom on the simulator directly from VSCode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
