Can VSCode edit itself yet? Atom was great for adjusting CSS of the editor on the fly.

You can customize theme colors and syntax colors live, in the settings.json file. Syntax looks like:

"workbench.colorCustomizations": { "[Monokai]": { "sideBar.background": "#347890" } }

or

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": { "[Monokai]": { "comments": "#229977" } },

yes you can theme it live, although changing syntax colors is only possible through a (limited) json flavor of textmate.
