VSCode is cross platform, what does Visual Studio do that it can't?

We build games for PS4 and Xbox One, as far as I know neither SDK has integrations for VS Code.

Can you do assembly view and memory editing in VS Code by the way? I honestly don't know.

VS Code isn't an IDE, as much as people want it to be

Yes it is. IDE = integrated development environment.

It has integrated git. It has integrated debuggers. It has integrated database tools. It has integration on tap, with extensions.

This wasn't argumentative, this was a genuine question - could you shed some light?

If you are writing .net core sure. Otherwise you are going to hit issues building and debugging. Why you would be attempting that outside of a Windows VM, I'm not sure.

Just because I have no reason to run a VM. VS runs fine outside a VM.
