Using MS Visual Studio Code IDE with Cinder

Has anyone used MS Visual Studio Code in lieu of VS Studio CE 2013/15?

I have a limited internet connection where I am currently living. I don’t have VS on my system any longer, and the download is 8 to 10 GB. I shouldn’t have deinstalled VS 2013 before leaving!

Can I get Visual Studio Code working with Cinder until my situation changes? I understand there will be trade-offs, but if Cinder is a library, I can get by without the tooling for now. I am new to Cinder, and C++ (former C programmer).

Hi,

I don’t think Microsoft VS Code has a built-in compiler, so you would not be able to run any of the code you write with it.
