But this surely deserves a thread of it's own if not a Board.
#1 I am so glad to see QB64 Phoenix Edition included with this project along with QB64 v2.1 fork.
Here is review I posted at the other forum of first impressions of First video grymmjack linked and hosted on You Tube.
Well onto the 2nd video, I hope we go over getting QB64 setup in VSCode more slowly and with easier to see writing on screen.
Basically we are mostly hobbyists not multi-lingual computer scientists.

Finally made it through first video, exhausted, overwhelmed. It's just a very fancy editor. Looks like it does handle formatting like QB64 IDE my biggest concern. I can open a window for a IDE substitute of F1 help in Notepad++ but the formatting is what kept me from Notepad++. If I Dim myVariable with camel caps and later type myvariable, will it reformat to myVariable so I know I am using a DIM'd variable and not a typo? Avoiding typos is my biggest concern with editors. Hey does it have spellchecker? It's got to amoung all those extensions
Not at all clear how to get the QB64 Extension (not made public yet, Beta testing) for downloaded VSCode. I know it's at GitHub but very unclear getting it to work with VSCode. BTW couldn't extract VSCode into a folder on my Desktop it dumped a mess of files and folders right on my desktop and I had to delete the mess. Usually extractions go easily into folders??? which it did do in DownLoads Folder.
I don't work with Jason so not impressed with configuring system with it, if it's text it's probably easy to figure out after rules of formatting known.
Looks like professional coders editor specially with links to GitHub.
Oh yeah, what is Lint or Linting? Never heard of it.
BTW RhoSigma did and does a fantastic job getting the QB64pe Wiki updated and looking good!
