This class uses Visual Studio Code. 

This is an intermediate level course. Students must have roblox studio scripting experience for this course. You do not need experience using Visual Studio Code.

VS Code is a powerful code editor used by professional developers—and with a few tools like Rojo, you can connect it directly to your Roblox projects.
