I don't understand why this was downvoted.
Vscode out-the-box is much more complete for coding than Emacs out-the-box.
While my Emacs-foo is not that great, I have relied on it for a lot over 25 years of programming. Recently, though, I gave Vscode a try, and while it's buggy as hell when you load up on the extensions you need, it's not that bad!
Slow? Yes, compared to a Vim or Emacs similarly set up. A wee bit bloated? Certainly, compared to my Vim and Emacs configuration.
But, really, it's the one I recommend to new developers. Not Vim, nor Emacs, even though I use those myself.
