How useful would it be running code from the ide Visual studio code 24/7 on a Raspberry pi? I'm trying to have this project send texts at certain times a day and running it on my computer all day seems like a bad idea I've read. So how plausible would it be to get a raspberry pi and run this code on it all day?
Well, the 24/7 isn't a problem.  The nice thing about Rasberry PI they all run under 10 watts.  The problem will be running Visual Studio.  I don't think you can bring VStudio up on a RPI; it is way too big.  Running the application itself, shouldn't be an issue though, depending on size and complexity of course.  Create and debug the application someplace else, then running the python on RPI should not be an issue.
