I use VSC on an old 2012 Mac Mini, and I cannot confirm that it consumes lots of CPU or memory, even with about two dozen extension installed. It is fast and responsive (some say it is notably faster than Atom, the other Electron-based code editor) and has become my favorite editor for code and Markdown (and I have been a diehard Vim user for years, if not decades!). Too many open windows may become a problem, but so may too many open tabs in Chrome or Firefox. VSC saves the state of a workspace though, so I can always happily close a window completely and re-open it later, and VSC restores the workspace. And VSC has a great Go plugin. Just give it a try, it is easy to install and easy to remove :) On Wednesday, August 9, 2017 at 8:25:25 AM UTC+2, Tyler Compton wrote: > > > Is Visual Studio Code a .Net app that takes up lots of memory and CPU? > > Worse, it's an Electron app :) > I don't personally use VSC, so I can't speak to its performance or > efficiency.
