The Visual Studio Code marketplace turns the app into a Swiss Army knife of code, text, and script editing. That's right you can use Microsoft's text editor to create scripts that will only work on Apple machines.
There are plugins for writing and running shell scripts in Code, for penning Markdown documents, and even writing AppleScript.
Not to be confused with Visual Studio, Microsoft's full-power IDE, VS Code is a lightweight text and script editor built around the concept of expanding support with plugins. Like Atom, Visual Studio Code is a comprehensive app that excels as an HTML editor.
