Visual Studio IDE Review

PROS: I do the bulk of my work in C#, however, I reach out to VS Code whenever I need to complete simpler projects. It is a one-stop-shop for all of the basic features that I need to create basic solutions. The VS Code Nuget library is a pretty good resource for me too.

CONS: No program is perfect. Despite my glowing review for VS Code, I am noting here that it does take forever for this program to load. You better be prepared because there will be a lot of waiting time.

PROS: I like the most recent version that VS Code has just rolled out. It works exponentially faster than its predecessors. It's great that I can easily edit the settings according to my preferences too! This is such a great tool to work with daily.

CONS: Depending on the project that I am working on, VS Code does tend to freeze or crash. Sometimes it requires a sharp reboot just to get it running again. However, I do know that the developers are doing their best to fix this issue.

PROS: I love how VS Code lets me design apps and website using a variety of languages. It has a very friendly interface too. On top of helping me finish all of my personal projects, I've also been able to use this to create solutions for small-time businesses in different industries.

CONS: The solution is a little bit on the slower end. If you want to run this program, then you better anticipate a longer waiting time.

PROS: This is a very intuitive program. Not only does it help you code your solutions, but it also pinpoints possible errors and bugs along the way.

CONS: There are some aspects of this program that can take a little longer to understand and learn. However, once you get the hang of it, everything should come more easily.

PROS: This program has helped us solve a lot of C# coding issues. The support team member was very helpful in helping us draw a conclusion to our problem too. He was able to give suggestions on the alternative codes that we can try. In the end, we were able to remedy the issue and have been assured that proper documentation was done.

CONS: VS Code does take some time to be fully functional because it takes too long to be installed. It's great that we can easily set-up our preferences, but I wish that they would cut down the loading and installation time. You can be easily overwhelmed with the choices and preferences too.

PROS: Visual Studio is probably the only editor that simplifies the whole coding process. It has features that are made for rookies and seasoned coders alike.

CONS: The initial setup can take up quite a bit of time. However, this is understandable because you'd have to carefully set your preferences if you want the program to work to your advantage.

PROS: Nothing compares to VS Code when it comes to IDEs. It has an intuitive platform that I had no trouble understanding. It lets us create and develop applications for desktop without any problem.

CONS: You'd have to pay for the quality when it comes to IDE. This is why it does not come as a surprise that VS Code comes at such a steep price. Despite the price, I don't think that there is enough support when it comes to MS versions though.

PROS: If you're on the lookout for a robust editor, then look no further. Not only is VS Code reliable, but it can also work seamlessly with a slew of integrations. On top of this, it can also work with a variety of coding languages without any problem. From .Net to Python, and even to regional languages like French and German, you can run this in VS Code. The settings can be customized according to your preferences too. And to anyone who's in a hurry, you're going to love that VS Code has an auto-complete feature that keeps a history of your most-used syntax. So, the next time that you start typing a series of codes that you've already done before, it will automatically fill up space for you. VS Code also has an excellent verification feature that can catch even the most inconspicuous bugs in your code.

CONS: Setting up your preferences and configuring your settings can take up quite some time at the start.

PROS: This is a program that has saved me a lot of time and headache in coding. It has an auto-fill feature that gives suggestions whenever you start to input syntax that you have already used before. Plus, it has a pretty solid verification feature that lets you catch bugs right away too.

CONS: I love everything about this program, except for its price. It can be a little on the higher-end and I can't afford it on my own.

PROS: Visual Studio Code is probably the best IDE that I have ever used. It can translate and process more languages than any other programs out there. I love that it lets me work on my TypeScript and Python here too. Consolidating my processes saves me a lot of time and effort. The best part? This is a free program.

CONS: Sure, Visual Studio Code can work with a slew of languages, but it does not hold a torch against IntelliJ. Compared to this powerhouse, all other features of VS Code seems to pale in comparison.

PROS: VS Code simplifies a lot of otherwise complicated coding and programming tasks. Thanks to Intellisense, one of its most prominent selling points, we've been able to quickly manipulate the environment of the applications that we are trying to create. There is a slew of shortcuts that assist efficiency in the workflow too.

CONS: If you want to get the most out of VS Code, then you would have to set aside the most powerful PC in your department. This is to say that VS Code runs best on a high-performing device and tends to lag on the lower-end ones.

PROS: Visual Studio has been an instrumental tool in helping me complete most of my school requirements. It can work seamlessly with several languages and frameworks--something that can't be said with other IDE options. I love how it barely leaves any footprint. I can run it on any device without a problem too. It is a complete solution for all of my coding and designing needs.

CONS: Its core form is everything that I need it to be: lightweight and robust. However, if I needed to install some of its plugins for specialized functions, it tends to slow my PC a bit. The more I install, the more frequent the crashes happen.

PROS: There are so many features that I love about this program. For one, I think that its debugging feature is absolutely brilliant. It is responsive and can help me fix just about any issue with my codes. It can detect the slightest issue in my codes too.

CONS: This is not the best solution for multi-tasking. VS Code requires you to run codes one set at a time, otherwise, it would end up crashing. Aside from this understandable issue, I don't think there's much I can complain about it.

PROS: This is probably one of the best editors available in the market. I love how it can work with a plethora of languages without any problem at all. It works seamlessly with most solutions as well.

CONS: The support team isn't as responsive nor attentive as I would like them to be. The system itself can take a while to load too.

PROS: What I love best about VS Code is its drag and drop feature that saves me a lot of time in coding layouts and sections. All I have to do is to put it on preview mode and simply arrange as I see fit--the system automatically codes the changes for me.

CONS: This is best used by beginners in programming because of how simple it is. The only issue that I see with this is that most of the rookies don't learn past this first stage of coding, and so they get stuck in a learning rut. This is not a negative comment against the program per se, but just a comment on the environment that it is encouraging.
