“Code” is the name of Microsoft’s new lightweight code editor. It’s been out since April but it seemed like this project was a good opportunity to use it properly.
It has a command palette much like the one in Sublime Text, but I couldn’t find a command to run my small .cs file.
Lots of the docs talk about using Grunt and Gulp to run your tasks, but that seemed like overkill for running a single command to build and run my code.
It turns out that you can configure your project.json
with a list of commands which then appear in the palette.
A couple of small lines and now I can run my code directly from inside Code, hurray!
