There's a lot more info on it in its documentation here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs Looks interesting, but I don't really see much that differentiates it from Atom, Sublime, Brackets, etc. Also the language support is kinda barebones--no syntax highlighting for Go or Rust? Only intellisense for Javascript and web stuff? Debugging only for Node.js?

Interestingly, Atom is already available on MS, OSX, and linux today. They need to make it competitive and updated with the current Atom to be popular. On the other hand, this gives Atom some good competition and impetus to improvement, and I already like Atom.

We have Go syntax highlighting today, but not Rust - but look for it in the next update!

What about Stylus (CSS-preprocessor) support?
