It was easier to invent typescript and make vscode than make Visual Studio cross platform so I can't really see that happening. The debugging tools are probably very coupled with windows kernel app. At least they're moving towards making wsl a first class target in visual studio.
Impressive, indeed - i'll install windows just for trying vs's code completion. Too bad the most valuable features are glued into a blob of useless abstraction - a tool for managing cmake - wtf? Isn't it cmake's purpose to be an abstraction of gnu make and Visual Studio etc? What's the point of adding more abstraction layer from the other direction?
Thank you, guys, for the great presentation. You forgot to mention how greatly slow VS2019 is now. The blue spinning wheel is the primary feature now!
This is great. Btw is there any plan to support Catch2 testing framework with VS2019 test runner?
The only thing missing for me personally is Visual Studio for Linux. The Community Edition would do.
100% agree, I hope they one day bring it to Linux. I love VS Code, but it doesn't quite cut it for me.
