It’s not really an alternative yet, it’s in alpha versions…
But I think it will be great in a year.
Might be neat. Might check it out. But devs really need to stop asking me to install things by curling a script and piping it into my shell. There are better ways to do this. Doing this leaves a massive possible attack surface.
No matter how they package it, running a binary downloaded from Internet has the same attack surface
You are right, except for one detail. Package managers almost always validate the packages using digital signatures, to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks. You don’t need to trust the network anymore. Shell scripts piped to a shell don’t have that protection. You still have to trust the developers and maintainers, though.
What’s with these posts using misleading info recently?
This doesn’t look anything like vs code.
The only similarity might be they’re both ide’s
Uhm yeah both are text editors trying to pass as an IDE. And alternatives don’t have to look alike either.
Yeah this looks like more of an alternative to Sublime
