DynamicWebPaige praised the team's user-obsessed engineering culture, while auchenberg reflected that VS Code defined the code-centric artisanal era — now over — but its foundations (LSP, DAP, extensions, devcontainers) matter more than ever as agents take over. He expressed excitement for the agent-first era.
