Also a god send for Visual Basic developers doing their "End If", "End Function", not to mention "End Sub". :D

Exactly... Life's already hard enough on them as it is. :)

VB dev here:

We don't actually type those, Visual Studio adds them automatically when we hit enter.

But we appreciate the thought, and we're happy that Ruby is halfway there now :)

Exactly, regular Visual Studio has done this forever, but Visual Studio Code acted poorly on any language that uses words as block delimiters.

As someone who's done C# and VB for well over 10 years before Ruby I definitely miss a lot about regular Visual Studio. It's nice to see VS Code evolving into a solid alternative for non Windows users while staying light and lean at the same time.
