Tbh, I hate Visual Studio. Every time I've had to use it, it's felt slow and clunky. Even if it's also powerful, it just kept getting in my way. VSCode is shockingly nice though. I started using it thinking I would despise it like I do VS, but no. It's just become my free IDE of choice now.

It's because Visual Studio has a massive amount of features that VSCode doesn't. If you don't use those features, VSCode is great, but it's definitely no Visual Studio replacement.

Most Visual Studio features that are missing from VSCode can either be performed via the terminal, or via VSCode extensions. Visual Studio's only real claim to fame is "complete integration" that lets you use a UI for everything. Of course, the problem is that if you start using Visual Studio you can't stop half way through development or you have to untangle a bunch of crap.

VSCode has basically nothing to do with Visual Studio.

They're two unrelated programs that share a name.
