Turning Sublime Text into a Lightweight Python IDE

I was a big fan of PyCharm, but VSCode is getting there in terms of IDE functionality, especially for Python. It's a decent daily driver for me now.

I really want to use VSCode, but the one HUGE thing holding me back is lack of a hot key to show/hide VSCode. I use iTerm and am used to opening/closing it with Ctrl + `. Having to use Cmd + Tab and then making sure I actually choose VSCode and note another application that I was just in really slows me down.

Sounds really orthogonal and something some third party keyboard-driven window management utility can take care.

The debugger in vs code is nearly on par with pycharms. It's crazy how right they got it from the getgo

Development tools were a strong suite of Microsoft from the beginning. But, VSCode is really great and admirable.
