VS Code editor for Arduino

[Terrence]

I have been using Visual Studio Code to develop all arduino projects. It seems so much better than the Arduino IDE.

Here is a blog post about it.

Visual Studio Code is NOT Visual Studio
It is a super light weight code editor for all languages.

@Terrence I tried it some time ago but being used to visual studio is not very straightforward

I use it and like it a lot (but then again, I'm admittedly biased - work for MSFT :-)).. I use VS Code for a lot of other non-mysensors and non-Arduino (i.e. python, node, etc) development, so it's nice to have that all consolidated in one dev tool.

It's far from a perfect tool, no doubt, but a good start. Mostly I'm just happy to get Intellisense!
