I didn't delve into the link...
But is the repo mostly for Visual Studio Code ?? aka MS Visual Studio Wink

I would assume for the Rasp-pi having the repo would be the preferable vs. a MS PPA (I giggled as I typed it  :005: - ha ha)...

I'm sure there will more "Cross Over" with MS in the Linux world, the above mentioned... Powershell for Linux, heck Teams, just wait Office365  :007:




The alternatives - aka Open Sourced would still be a way around the MS repo... i.e. Atom in favor of Visual Code....


With the inclusion of MS in Linux or is Linux in MS... Can my next work laptop be Linux  :004:
