So I started my coding journey with Python about 2 years ago. I primarily used IDLE which was super bare bones but was perfect for my needs.

I’m now toying around with Javascript with eventual aspirations to learn C# and maybe something else (Golang maybe, C++ is intimidating). I completed codecademy.com’s course on Javascript, have been running through some algo training on codewars, been playing a little BitBurner, but now I want to actually try to develop my own stuff.

Looks like Visual Studio has an environment that supports Javascript, Python, and C# in one place. How is it? What are some of the positives and negatives of choosing to use Visual Studio moving forward?

    I use Visual Studio Community Edition to debug D code (works well for the most part, except it doesn’t always want to handle D exceptions - I will try to upgrade the plugin), while I’m using VSCode as my text editor (does not force me to use the VS build system, and instead I can just use dub - best build system, but by build system standard).
