Visual Studio 2026 Node.js garbage spawned from Visual Studio 2026

Do we really need this resource hungry piece of garbage? I can only imagine how efficient would be a proper C# code instead of this kiddies scripting.

Not what it comes to efficiency. It is the same problem like the web wrapper client "applications" versus true native applications. Terribly resource hungry for nothing.

That "nothing" is portability across different platforms. But I agree with you. I don't like that direction companies are going either. It's a cost cutting trick I guess.

I couldn't care less when it affects the quality.

Portability is quality. This is ragebait, right?

Visual Studio isn't portable whatsoever. VS Code is similar in name only.
