This Editor has nothing to with Visual Studio.

It's a multi language Editor that can be compared with Sublime Text and Atom.

IntelliSense
One of the strong Point of this editor is IntelliSense.
It's go beyond good autocomplete support,this is how it look if i take mouse over some code.

REPL
One of thing i like very much is that code can be sent to eg ptpython,IPython from code window.
So can continue to test in REPL.

Final Words
It's for sure an editor worth a look,has a quite easy setup for Python.
The IntelliSense and Debugger are the best out there.
Has a support for a lot of good stuff in Marketplace.
It's fast and light weighted.
