Ted NewardDirector of technology culture, Quicken Loans In a nutshell, I think it's the Emacs of a new generation: open, extensible, backed by a major vendor without being exclusionary, cross-platform on all the platforms that matter, and relatively fast. Other developers agreed with Neward's take. It's hit the center of a magic circle that way."
"In a nutshell, I think it's the EMACS of a new generation: open, extensible, backed by a major vendor without being exclusionary, cross-platform on all the platforms that matter, and relatively fast," Neward said. Ted Neward, director of technology culture for Detroit-based Quicken Loans, described the reasons for VS Code's success thusly. Microsoft VS Code is relevant for different developer personas including front-end, full-stack, data engineers, and nontraditional developers such as site reliability engineers, engineers and system administrators. Last October, Microsoft partnered with Adobe to release the Adobe XD extension for Visual Studio Code, which enables designers to create design packages for developers across their organization to use when building applications.
"Thus, it has a lot of integrations which improve developer productivity."
"It's got a nice UX, it's free, it's nimble - and thus performant, it's multi-platform, and it's straightforward to extend," said Jeffrey Hammond, an analyst at Forrester. Gamma joined Microsoft because he envisioned a new standard for browser-based developer tooling that would be as successful as the IDE had been for the desktop, he said. "People think VS Code was an overnight success, but it was 10 years in the making," said Erich Gamma, technical fellow at Microsoft and creator of VS Code, at the VS Code Day virtual event on January 27. The tool now has 14 million monthly active users, Microsoft said. Microsoft VS Code's popularity lies in the fact it can be used by any developer, in almost any language, on any device. Last year, VS Code gained five million new users because of Microsoft's increased focus on collaboration, remote development, and making Visual Studio Code the home for different kinds of developer personas.
