Can I use Visual Studio Code for my Angular and .Net Core apps?

[questionwonder]

After seeing the announcement today and following this news for a couple of years I'd like to know -
when will I be able to install and use Visual Studio Code (Angular/Node.js, .Net Core) to build and develop my web applications?

1. Will I need to wait for MS to create an ARM version of VS Code to run on the new AS MacBooks? Will they use Rosetta or a new build?
2. What about Angular/Node.js? Will Google have to build a new version for ARM? Or will they / can they use Rosetta?
3. What about .Net Core (I think they have a ARM build)?

i think XCode is the best tool at the moment to develop apps for both intel and m1. I believe that a native version of microsoft visual studio is stIll some way off

The OP refers to Visual Studio Code, the (mostly?) open source text editor, not the full IDE. There's a git hub issue that mentions a fix is needed in electron, in turn linking to a blog post stating that they're working on it.

Ordered an AS Mac, so I'm curious how development will work out in the early days of AS as well.

that too I believe that a native version of Visual studio code is still some way off. It’s possible that the existing version could work under Rosetta 2 but I’m not sure. I don’t think it will run as smoothly as the native version but I could be wrong

It's probably dependent on whether they can get electron to run properly on Apple Silicon quickly enough, since that's what vs code is built upon. For properly native text editors really I hope the sublime text devs have something in development, not to speak of the programming languages themselves. Trying to do an inventory of software I need/want to work, but I guess it's still *very* early.
