Visual Studio Code
Microsoft's free, extensible code editor
VS Code is a lightweight but powerful editor with IntelliSense code completion, debugging, built-in Git, an integrated terminal and a marketplace of tens of thousands of extensions for almost every language and framework.
The source code is open (MIT), while the official Microsoft build is free under a proprietary license. For a build without telemetry, see VSCodium.
