Yeah, I use VS Code as my terminal now. I love having the directory tree visible if I need or want to single click a file and play with it instantly with zero overhead. I use thunder client now instead of that dreadful postman obomination after learning about it here last week. VS Code is becoming my general purpose environment.

I was working in PowerShell ISE today and was thinking "this has to go" the whole time. So if I have any PowerShell work in the future I'm going to try the VS Code tooling for that.

I knew at least one person at Capital One who was using it for their Spring Boot project instead of Intellij.

I have dedicated tools for most tasks like the terminal, git client, REST client, etc, but most of the time I use VS Code (built-ins or extensions); even when I'm making compromises, I prefer the workflow of staying on one screen.
