That's exciting. While I have some minor gripes about VSCode, it is fine enough. What gets me worried is the plugin ecosystem continually becomes a selling point in which no other editor can compete. I want other editors to be built and have a chance to thrive, but it becomes impossible if all of the good development tools get locked to one program.
