![]() It’s now easier than ever to get what you want, when you want it. And, on the off-chance it cant? Well, simply just find an extension!Īlso, VS Code has great linting thanks to its many new extensions such as Github Copilot, AI-based linting, auto imports, and much more. Whether you’re switching between python for an API or javascript for a frontend, or adding a NextJS react app, or setting up a ruby on rails system, VS Code can support these languages, provide linting, and much more-entirely out of the box. And, for any full stack developers like me, this is big. It’s quick and easy to get up and running with just about any programming language. VS Code can be considered as an “editor” for a reason. Code Inspection & Refactoring VS Code - Quick, Easy, Multilanguage Support If you’re looking for a change of an editor, but are hesitant on even giving JetBrains a try (because, I mean VS Code is free and JetBrains for non-students isn’t) or if you’re just interested in the reasons as to why I committed such a betrayal, read on! This article is an honest comparison between VS Code and JetBrains and why the switch to JetBrains might be great for some. But wouldn’t you know it, I’m here now, writing this article about what finally convinced me to abandon the IDE that has been by my side since day one. ![]() And… I begrudgingly agreed, thinking it’d be a one and done thing (and so that the finally meeting could end). During one of our daily stand-up meetings, my co-worker, Emerson, was adamant about the JetBrains ecosystem and extended the meeting trying to convince one of us to give it a whirl. Now just a bit of background, I work at Blankly where we enable people to build trading algorithms on hedge-fund level cloud infrastructure in minutes instead of months. I would’ve even offered up my left kidney, fighting for the fact that VS Code was superior (just like M1 Pro Macs are) to any other IDE on the market. And sure, before I tried out the JetBrains ecosystem, I would’ve completely agreed. You’d think that after five years of coding in one IDE, I would be out of my mind to leave the VS Code. VSCodium exists to make it easier to get the latest version of MIT-licensed VS Code.Call me crazy if you have to. If you want to build from source yourself, head over to Microsoft’s vscode repo and follow their instructions. These binaries are licensed under the MIT license. ![]() This project includes special build scripts that clone Microsoft’s vscode repo, run the build commands, and upload the resulting binaries for you to GitHub releases. The VSCodium project exists so that you don’t have to download+build from source. Therefore, you generate a “clean” build, without the Microsoft customizations, which is by default licensed under the MIT license When you clone and build from the vscode repo, none of these endpoints are configured in the default product.json. We clone the vscode repository, we lay down a customized product.json that has Microsoft specific functionality (telemetry, gallery, logo, etc.), and then produce a build that we release under our license. When we build Visual Studio Code, we do exactly this. According to this comment from a Visual Studio Code maintainer: Microsoft’s vscode source code is open source (MIT-licensed), but the product available for download (Visual Studio Code) is licensed under this not-FLOSS license and contains telemetry/tracking.
