What’s this course about and how is it different
This course takes you hands-on through creating a real and meaningful Python project using FastAPI to give you a true sense of VS Code’s potential and exposure to many of its features. Moverover, it’s taught by two experts who have both worked at Microsoft (makers of VS Code).

Not only do you get 2 perspectives and areas of experise, but you also get a lively and fun course co-taught by two fun instructors playing off each other throughout the course.

What topics are covered
In this course, you will

Learn how VS Code compares to an IDE, whether it is an IDE, and if it can become one.
How to choose a Python distribution for your projects.

Rearrange windows and panels to suit your style and preferences.
Use the all-important command palette.
Install and explore editor themes.
Customize the terminal inside of VS Code.
Find and install some of the best extensions.

Who is this course for
This course is for anyone who wants to use VS Code as their primary development environment. We keep beginners in mind and help them install the necessary elments (like the correct version of Python and VS Code). But we also think there is a lot to offer experienced Python developers who don’t take full advantage of VS Code yet.
