You can identify complexity, potential risks, implementation flaw with in your project. While discussion with many developers recently, I found there are lot of developers still didn’t know about this tool or such metrics or why should you use ? or not clear about it – Well, By taking advantage of these metrics, as a developer, you can understand which classes, which methods, which module should be reworked or refactor. In short, Code Metrics is an important measure that let us understand the complexity and maintainability of the code. As a developer when you are writing your code, you must adhere those boundary values of metrics to ensure your code is well written, understandable and maintainable. No one likes over engineered or too complex code. Typical Visual Studio devs will find VSCode very disturbing at first.Code Metrics is one of the important software measures that give you an insight of your code maintainability and complexity. VSCode has no project files, no sln solution either… it works right from a folder. If you like: click, file, new “Add New Item” dialog box, then you might not want such a tool.


It is done for people who like to code fast, in a console-line environment, most of the time with keyboard only. You get the power of Roslyn for code analysis, and nice editor features like codelens-style reference counts and peek definition! It offers an insanely fast keyboard-centric coding experience, without the complexity of a full blown IDE.

I’ve been using early builds for a few days, mostly on AngularJS apps and I really like it. See, not tons of features here, just the essential, and very well done.
