So a like 1.5yrs ago, I switched to #VSCode permanently and haven't used #VisualStudio or #Rider at all.

Now two of my coworkers want me to sit with them and go over my workflow because they want to see if they can switch as well.

We primarily do #aspnet things and smaller tools in #dotnet.

Any one else using only vscode? As I put together this thing to show them my workflow, I'm looking for other useful extensions and workflows some might use to show them as well.

@aristurlte I work in VS Code whenever I can, never got the C#/Unity intellisense to work though, so I had to switch back to normal VS out of necessity

@casraf Ah that's a bummer. I remember having that same issue when I was using Unity years ago, but I haven't used Unity in like 5 years since I started using MonoGame.

It's still a problem in 2023? There were so many solutions back then posted that claimed to work but none ever really did.

@aristurlte maybe I have a weird setup (M1)or maybe I should give it a fresh go. I think I heard of MonoGame once before, it's interesting to see it used. Maybe I'll check it out at least once :)

@casraf It's vastly different than Unity if you've never used it and have been with Unity for a while.

It's a code first framework, so if just focusing on code is your thing, you might enjoy it. It's not a full engine like Unity with an editor and all that fancy stuff.

But that's what appeals to me, being able to focus on the code, and if I need some tooling or workflow, I can make it or use some existing library.

@aristurlte Yeah I'm tied to nothing, I'm a fullstack developer for career, and very comfortable with code :)

I haven't REALLY gained a lot of experience with any game engine, though I'd say I do with Unity more than others... But I've done code-only for small stuff, used p5 and Flame before :)

So that really sounds nice, I don't necessarily need an editor, it's mostly easier for maps, really
