1
00:00:00,270 --> 00:00:05,160
Visual Studio Code is fast, free, cross-platform,

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,926
and supports just about any programming language

3
00:00:07,926 --> 00:00:08,868
you can imagine.

4
00:00:08,868 --> 00:00:12,423
It includes the helpful features developers use every day

5
00:00:12,423 --> 00:00:16,982
without many of the niche tools that sometimes make larger IDEs

6
00:00:16,982 --> 00:00:18,600
feel slow and bloated.

7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,452
In this course, I'll cover its most important

8
00:00:21,452 --> 00:00:25,275
features and try to do so in an order that roughly follows a

9
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:27,738
standard software development workflow.

10
00:00:27,738 --> 00:00:31,873
I'll then explore the built-in terminal and how to execute

11
00:00:31,873 --> 00:00:33,977
external tasks and processes.

12
00:00:33,977 --> 00:00:37,441
It's usually around this point in the development cycle that you

13
00:00:37,441 --> 00:00:39,146
discover you've got a few bugs.

14
00:00:39,146 --> 00:00:43,365
So I'll also cover how to debug your programs in VS Code.

15
00:00:43,365 --> 00:00:46,974
I'm Brice Wilson, and I've been developing software

16
00:00:46,974 --> 00:00:48,300
for over 25 years.

17
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:51,952
Keep watching to see how Visual Studio Code can help you

18
00:00:51,952 --> 00:00:56,00
become a more efficient and productive developer.
