How it works...

VS Code supports many languages and technologies: C#, JS, TypeScript, AngularJS, Less, GIT, HTML, JSON, and SASS. We can associate VS Code with Node.js to get benefits from all task runners features such as gulp or grunt.

We will be able to use all Node.js features through node package manager (npm), which is a package manager like Maven or NuGet. It's possible to install Node.js using other package managers, such as Chocolatey on Windows or Homebrew on macOS. We can also download it from the official website (https://nodejs.org/en/download/).

VS Code has several features, some of which are listed as follows:

• Intellisense
• Debugging
• Version control using GIT features
• Snippets
• Warnings
• Code actions
• Go to definitions
• Refactoring

Debugging is available for C#, JavaScript, and TypeScript.
