yeah, recent Microsoft attitude for development tools is excellent. They opensourced a lot of codes, released Visual Studio Code,and integrated Windows with bash shell. I assume Apple is becoming less dev-oriented company, seeing they are making light of pro tools like MacPro and function keys.

While I agree... MS DevDiv must be an interesting place to be right now. The Linux subsystem for Windows sucks so bad, and the windows containers for docker feels half baked as well... Use the msys bash that comes with git instead.

That said, I'm happy to see this and do hope to see a similar effort for Linux as many Mac users are starting to move on. This may well be an indication that the next VS on Windows may well be based on the MD base... Should they want to unify that.

I've been very happy with VS Code for my needs all the same. Can't recommend it enough for js/Node.
