200MB download, 500MB install. "Lightweight text editor"

There are

- text editors

- programmers text editors

- integrated development environments

- rapid application development tools

Sorted by size, reversely proportional to feature set. Basically VSCode is an overbloated #2, that isn't good enough to be #3 and is nowhere near #4.

You could've fit a full blown RAD into 500MB (Borland C++ Builder) 20 years ago.
