You can use this editor with many Linux distros.
Today I tested with Fedora 28 distro version.
sudo rpm --import https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc
sudo sh -c 'echo -e "[code]\nname=Visual Studio Code\nbaseurl=https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/
vscode\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc" > /etc/yum.repos.d/vscode.repo'
Then use dnf to check and install this editor.#dnf check-update
#dnf install code
Next step is to install extensions for Python, Golang, PHP, C# and more.
