For those of you reading this: If possible, you should invest in neo(vim) instead of (vs)code, as I believe there is a significant difference in productivity when it comes to not worrying about the user interface that (vs)code provides. |

Code
NOTE: As of 2021, I have no interest in the (vs)code text editor. Although the out-of-the-box features are nice and all, trying to emulate vim-like functionality was more pain than it was worth (even after using vscode-neovim). Additionally, the battery drain is unreal compared to running an equivalent neovim experience.
Code is an open source build of a popular GUI text editor.
Use Cases
Code can be used to:
- Navigate graphical file trees entirely with the mouse
- Provide an editor for non-vim users as needed
- Perform a myriad of common command line operations through a point-click GUI
You should not use Code if:
- You want to learn how compilers, git, find, grep, and other software work
- You want to learn vim, the standard text editor
Usage
Once Code is installed, run make code-extensions
to install the extensions I use.
