Comment on Ask HN: Why do you like Visual Studio Code?

Comments

1. Looks decent, right out of the box.

2. Configured well, out of the box.

3. Performs decently (albeit nowhere nearly as well as vim or Sublime).

4. Remote editing.

5. Wealth and ease of installation of extensions.

Background: Have been using UNIX since the mid-80s, have tons of experience with vi and later vim, and generally prefer CLI over GUI.
