Introduction

One of the most common requirements in software development today is building applications and services that run on multiple systems and devices, especially with the continued expansion of cloud and artificial intelligence services.

Developers have many options to build cross-platform and cross-device software, from languages to development platforms and tools. However, in most cases such tools rely on proprietary systems, therefore creating strong dependencies. Moreover, most development tools target specific platforms and development scenarios. Microsoft Visual Studio Code makes a step forward, by providing a fully featured development environment for Windows, macOS, and Linux that not only offers advanced coding features but also integrated tools that span across the entire application lifecycle from coding to debugging to team collaboration. In this book, developers with any skill will learn how to leverage Visual Studio Code to target scenarios such as web, cloud, and mobile development with the programming language of their choice, providing guidance to build apps for any system and any device.

1. Introducing Visual Studio Code

Visual Studio Code is not just another evolved notepad with syntax colorization and automatic indentation. Instead, it is a very powerful code-focused development environment expressly designed to make it easier to write web, mobile, and cloud applications using languages that are available to different development platforms and to support the application development lifecycle with a built-in debugger and with integrated support to the popular Git version control engine.

With Visual Studio Code, you can work with individual code files or with structured file systems based on folders. This chapter provides an introduction to Visual Studio Code giving you information on when and why you should use it, as well as about installing and configuring the program on the different supported operating systems.

Note

Across the book, I will refer to the product with its full name, Visual Studio Code, and its friendly names VS Code and Code interchangeably.

Introducing Visual Studio Code

Visual Studio Code has been the first cross-platform development tool in the Microsoft Visual Studio family that runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS. It is free, open source ( https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode ), and it is definitely a code-centric tool, which makes it easier to edit code files and folder-based project systems as well as writing cross-platform web and mobile applications over the most popular platforms, such as Node.js and .NET Core, with integrated support for a huge number of languages and rich editing features such as IntelliSense, finding symbol references, quickly reaching a type definition, and much more.

Visual Studio Code is based on Electron ( https://electronjs.org/ ), a framework for creating cross-platform applications with native technologies, and combines the simplicity of a powerful code editor with the tools a developer needs to support the application lifecycle development, including debuggers and version control integration based on Git. It is therefore a complete development tool, rather than being a simple code editor. For more advanced coding and development, you will certainly consider Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 on Windows and Visual Studio for Mac on macOS, but Visual Studio Code can be really helpful in many situations.

In this book, you learn how to use Visual Studio Code and how to get the most out of it, seeing how you can use it both as a powerful code editor and as a complete environment for end-to-end development . Except where necessary, figures are based on the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system, but there is no difference on Linux and macOS. Also, Visual Studio Code includes a number of color themes that style its layout. In this book, figures are based on the so-called Visual Studio Light Theme, so you might see different colors. Chapter , Customizing Visual Studio Code, explains how to change the theme, but if you want to be consistent with the books figures, simply select
