Microsoft made available on October 20 a preview version of its Visual Studio Code (VS Code) tool for the Web. VSCode for the Web enables developers to use a lighter-weight version of VSCode directly in the browser without having to install it on their PCs. <\/p>\n
By going to https:\/\/vscode.dev<\/a>, users can get a version of VS Code that works in their browsers. Officials are calling it a \"zero-installation local development tool.\" <\/p>\n Microsoft officials suggested several scenarios where people might want VS Code for the Web. Among them: Local file viewing and editing for taking notes quickly and previewing in Markdown; building client-side HTML, JavaScript and CSS applications in conjunction with he browser tools for debugging; editing code on machines where it's not easy to install VS Code, such as Chromebooks; and even developing on iPads. <\/p>\n Browsers that support the File System Access APIs -- which means Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome so far -- are supported. And if a browser doesn't yet support local File System Access APIs, users still will be able to open individual files by uploading and downloading them via the browser.<\/p>\n \"Bringing VS Code to the browser is the realization of the original vision for the product. It is also the start of a completely new one. An ephemeral editor that is available to anyone with a browser and an internet connection is the foundation for a future where we can truly edit anything from anywhere,\" Microsoft's blog post concluded.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n View post: <\/p>\n Microsoft makes its VS Code tool available directly in the browser - ZDNet<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Credit: Microsoft Microsoft made available on October 20 a preview version of its Visual Studio Code (VS Code) tool for the Web.
