Compiling VS Code TFS compilation

[Soulster]

Hello is there a possible tutorial how to compile tfs on VS Code instead of VS if its even possible.

Its not. Vscode is not a compiler. You need vsstudio or use cmake through vscode terminal. Why you would oreffer vscode before vstudio?

Visual Studio is not a compiler either lmao.
Both are IDEs. In VSCode you can write tasks and launch options in json and use mvsc or cmake to compile it if configured properly.

Thanks to everybody that responded seems like setting up compilation on vscode is way to time consuming better to stick with this clunky VS or use both at the same time VS Code to edit the code and vs just to compile.


Soon AI will do this boring stuff for us ;p
