Cons
Con Doesn't work out of the box on Linux
It's painful to configure builds, include headers, but once you figure it out it's pretty good. The status bar is sometimes brilliant, but other times useless, seems to configure itself on a whim, and you can't seem to control it.
Con Memory hog
Allegedly, VS Code is "lightweight". Yet, running multiple instances of it at once, you may get many "out of memory" messages from Windows despite 16 GB RAM (while of course also running other things. The point is the comparison with some other IDEs/editors where running them alongside the same number of other applications doesn't cause Windows to run out of memory).
