flashgnashMost of us hate Microsoft, and yet many of us use VSCode
VSCode is an open source IDE. Its biggest rival is the JetBrains suite. When the alternatives are proprietary, VSCode is a win.
Possibly linuxVScode isn’t foss. It just contains some open source code.
FischIt contains mostly open source code. The proprietary binary MS distributes adds very little proprietary stuff to it. You can use the open source version
Code - OSS just fine or use VSCodium which is based on that
PantherinaInteresting, how do you get this Code-OSS?
If you’re on Linux, you can download it as a flatpak or if you’re on arch through the package manager. Maybe it’s also in the repositories of other distros but I can’t check that. I also have no idea how to download it on Windows. I would recommend getting VSCodium anyway though. It’s also available as a flatpak, in the AUR and on their website for Windows.
