Visual Studio Code (VS Code for short) is a free Code editor developed by Microsoft for Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems. It supports testing, has built-in Git version control, and also has development environment functionality. Examples include code completion (similar to IntelliSense), code snippet, and code refactoring. The editor allows users to customize various attributes and parameters, such as changing theme colors and keyboard shortcuts, as well as built-in extension management. VSCode also supports Flutter development. In my daily development, I use VSCode more than Android Studio.
