That&#x27;s a plus in my books! I&#x27;ve tried all of the popular highly-rated IDEs and keep coming back to emacs. VS Code is the first Windows editor that I&#x27;ve used that I don&#x27;t hate.<p>I actually feel quite conflicted. Right now, my favourite dev machine is my Surface 3 non-pro. I use VS Code for local development, and SSH to a tmuxed emacs session on the beefy Linux box at home. My whole life I&#x27;ve generally hated Windows, but since Git for Windows includes bash, it&#x27;s actually not a bad environment. CMake can target the Visual Studio compiler too, so cross-platform work is pretty smooth too.
