I really wish that Sublime would add an integrated terminal panel. None of the packages I’ve tried that do add a terminal view, work the way the way I want them to. It’s really the one feature that’s holding me back from even trying to switch away from VS Code.

The whole set of Remote Development extensions is a game changer. You can be remote and it feels like being local with the terminal, debugger, files and language server.

It's especially useful when your laptop is running a different OS than Linux which is often the target.

I just hate the overly zealous autocomplete that fixes good words into bad words and forces me to hit Esc every time.

I'm on Linux, but have remote vscode into my desktop at the office and macincloud for testing on mac...

One day, I'l figure out how to automatically provision a Windows VM in cloud too, clone from github and connect with vscode.

I prefer having my terminals separate from my editor, personally

Agreed. Set up your terminal to automatically come to the front with a keyboard shortcut. To me this seems better than having it built in to the editor in every way.

Same here. I was a huge terminal in editor user, but VSCode crashed on me a couple of times resulting in restarting all the terminals and the processes which I was running. Since then I always use an external terminal.
