how do you live preview let's HTML APP on VS Code? Like Brackets has it. I guess I can hit f1 and view in browser but is not "Live" and gets tiring refreshing the page.

I think there's plugins for that. Checkout https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hdg.live....

I do a lot of front-end dev and use VS Code as well. I do remember Brackets being pretty nifty for doing just HTML/CSS stuff. In practice, however, I'm pretty much exclusively writing JavaScript that outputs html, so the usefulness of Brackets' live preview or similar is almost nonexistent.

I think VS Code hits the sweet spot between actively-developed, speed, free, and features... for front-end at least. It's also pretty good for Golang.

To be honest, I don't usually do html. I lived for a few days basically inside of the VS Code nodejs debugger and it was ok, what else do you need than combine data from few requests and spit out a json, right? :-)
