Microsoft has become such a bizarre company. On the one hand, it's trying to be super developer-friendly, with tools like Typescript, VS Code, and DotNet Core being easy to use and multi-platform. On the other hand, they seem hell-bent on making Windows itself - their bread-and-butter offering - as hard to use and annoying as possible.
It just doesn't make any sense.
Aren't these all just its own products?
And wow, do I hate VS Code. Just sayin.
I hate that it's only open source on the surface, but besides clion or a highly customised vim setup, I don't think anything comes close to it.
