Visual Studio (VS) is a basically complete development toolset, which includes most of the tools needed in the entire software life cycle, such as UML tools, code control tools, integrated development environments (IDEs), etc. But for beginners, although VS is easy to use, it easily makes us rely too much on this powerful IDE, which may cause us to lack some lower-level but more important knowledge. In addition, as a complete development environment, VS is also relatively bloated. Compared with vscode, vscode is more concise.
