Amazing Performance yet Lite Date: Dec 09 2020
Summary: As a developer, I loved this software, not only it is good for mobile development, it supports multiple programming languages. I am using it for a long time now, and haven't thought of changing it as it provides frequent support and nearly supports anything related to programming and development. If you want a fast and light platform for your work this is for you.
Positive: I am a mobile developer and used to work on android studio for development but android studio used to be very harsh to my system. Then I switched to visual studio code, it was lite yet gave the same performance as android studio. User-friendly interface, a huge set of plug-ins, color coding, autocompletion these featured are so helpful for heavy coding and were all present in visual studio code.
Negative: I faced no cons in this software, easy to install and use.

Great Free IDE but lacks some GIT features Date: Jul 18 2022
Summary: I use both IntelliJ and VS Code at the same time. Sometimes, i have to switch to IntelliJ when it comes to merge conflicts. But when i need more memory to perform other memory consuming operations, i always use VSCODE as it is much lighter.
Positive: Best free IDE that i have used so far. It is very light weight in terms of memory utilisation and works smooth on my Mac Book PRO. I really like the window splitting feature and renaming my terminal tabs. I can run my different environments in different named tabs.
Negative: Although the features are great, one feature that i really miss out on this IDE is the use of GIT. E.g. if it does not support a GUI to resolve merge conflicts. It is handy for updating the repo but not that flexible for resolving conflicts.
