Visual Studio for Mac ... says it all

@husseinyahfoufi is that bad or good? im actually totally in love with Visual Studio Code. I think its by far the best Editor/IDE Hybrid. Its the only Windows product I'd call fantastic. If they build on that knowledge this might be great in the future.

@gopietz I think this is great! I would also love to see .Net go full open source and be more widely used. Seems like MSFT is headed in that direction.

@gopietz @husseinyahfoufi I agree! Love Visual Studio Code! I have tried Sublime and Atom, and gotta say, Visual Studio Code might be the best thing from Microsoft :D

No Swift.NET yet?
This is ultimately just a re-branded Xamarin, and that's fine.

Mac Preview 1 now available. Release notes.

I'm ready for a next gen IDE -- available on all platforms including iOS -- where code, dependencies, compiling and distribution are handled in the cloud.

YES! Finally! WTF took so long?

One of my favorite Mac apps is from Microsoft :-) VSC is terrific, and the update cycle + we-are-listening approach is worthy of a startup. Oh, did I mention that it's free?!? Park your Anti-Microsoft legacies and give it a try.

Pros:

Fast, great formatting, extensions, language-specific goodies

Cons:

'not a real IDE' - meh...
