Visual Studio Code is built using web technologies on top of Github&#39;s [Electron][1]. 

Electron is an app runtime for writing *native* apps that uses [Chromium][4] *(which Google Chrome is built on)* for rendering the interface and [node.js][5] for local APIs *(example: file system access)*, it was built primarily as the shell for Github&#39;s [Atom][3] code editor. *(Note: Electron is very similar to [NW.js][2])*. 

Node.js is a *(JavaScript)* app runtime built on Google&#39;s V8 JavaScript engine with C and C++ code to give it access to native APIs for each operating system *(example: file system access)*.

Essentially, Microsoft&#39;s new product is built completely upon open source software whose major components were created by Google.

There are rumors that Visual Studio code is either a fork or rebranding of Github&#39;s Atom Editor. This is not even remotely true. Inspecting the source of Visual Studio Code reveals that it uses Electron and [Atom Shell Archive][7], but nothing else is from the Atom editor.

The &#39;editor&#39; *(the thing that renders the code with syntax highlighting, line numbers, etc..)* part of Visual Studio Code is Microsoft&#39;s Monaco editor. It is the same editor used for OneDrive, Windows Azure, TypeScript Playground, and Visual Studio Online. I have yet to find any real documentation on this editor from Microsoft but there are [some articles][8] about it around the web. 

[Omnisharp][9] is used to provide IntelliSense and other code editing tools for C# *(example: refactoring)*.

The JavaScript Intellisense appears to be all custom code. It provides impressive JavaScript completions but it many cases it appears to be inferior to [Tern][10] *(see [Tern Demo][11])*.

I have searched on the web for over two days now, and probably have looked through most of the online documented scenarios and workarounds, but nothing worked for me so far.

I am on **AWS SDK** for PHP V2.8.7 running on PHP 5.3.

I am trying to connect to my Amazon S3 bucket with the following code:

```php
// Create a `Aws` object using a configuration file
$aws = Aws::factory(&#39;config.php&#39;);

// Get the client from the service locator by namespace
$s3Client = $aws-&gt;get(&#39;s3&#39;);

$bucket = &quot;xxx&quot;;
$keyname = &quot;xxx&quot;;

try {
    $result = $s3Client-&gt;putObject(array(
        &#39;Bucket&#39; =&gt; $bucket,
        &#39;Key&#39; =&gt; $keyname,
        &#39;Body&#39; =&gt; &#39;Hello World!&#39;
    ));

    $file_error = false;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    $file_error = true;

    echo $e-&gt;getMessage();

    die();
}
```
			

My config.php file is as follows:

```php
return [
    // Bootstrap the configuration file with AWS specific features
    &#39;includes&#39; =&gt; [&#39;_aws&#39;],
    &#39;services&#39; =&gt; [
        // All AWS clients extend from &#39;default_settings&#39;. Here we are
        // overriding &#39;default_settings&#39; with our default credentials and
        // providing a default region setting.
        &#39;default_settings&#39; =&gt; [
            &#39;params&#39; =&gt; [
                &#39;credentials&#39; =&gt; [
                    &#39;key&#39;    =&gt; &#39;key&#39;,
                    &#39;secret&#39; =&gt; &#39;secret&#39;
                ]
            ]
        ]
    ]
];
```

It is producing the following error:

&gt; The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method.

I&#39;ve already checked my access key and secret at least 20 times, generated new ones, used different methods to pass in the information (i.e. profile and including credentials in code) but nothing is working at the moment.

What is the Visual Studio Code editor built on

What underlying technologies/libraries is Microsoft's new (free) cross platform editor <a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Visual Studio Code</a> (Launched 5/29/2015) built on? There are rumors that it's just Github's Atom Editor rebranded.

I&#39;m currently developing a desktop application with Node-webkit. During that process I need to get some data from a local MySQL-database.

The querying works fine, but I can&#39;t figure out how to access the results. I store all of them in an array that is then passed to a function. In the console they look like this:

    RowDataPacket {user_id: 101, ActionsPerformed: 20}
    RowDataPacket {user_id: 102, ActionsPerformed: 110}
    RowDataPacket {user_id: 104, ActionsPerformed: 3}

And here is the query structure:

    var ret = [];
    conn.query(SQLquery, function(err, rows, fields) {
        if (err)
        	alert(&quot;...&quot;);
        else {
	        for (var i of rows) 
		        ret.push(i);
	    }
    	doStuffwithTheResult(ret);
    }


How do I retrieve this in the `doStuffwithTheResult` function? The values are more important, but if I could get the keys as well that would be great.

I have recently started using Atom editor. Its pretty great so far. I am planning to install it on several other machines.

How can I replicate the config and list of packages installed on my current machine to other machines. Is there a config that I can use to export and import them on other machines.



How to save Atom editor config and list of packages installed

In Atom Editor I installed the following plugins

 1. linter 
 2. linter-eslint

It seems they don&#39;t recognize the JSX syntaxis. 

I have it working on the command line but had to use other plugins like `esprima-fb` and `eslint-plugin-react`. Looks like there are no such plugins for Atom Editor and would like to know if anyone of you knows a way to hack around this.

The [docs][1] mention an executable called `code`, but I&#39;m not sure where I can find that so I can put it on my path. The zip I downloaded from the VSCode site did not include any such executable. (I am able to run the `.app` just fine.)

How to open Visual Studio Code from the command line on OSX?

Working with the new VSCode editor on a node.js project. I am attempting to configure my &quot;Launch&quot; profile for debugging by editing the launch.json file. I need to setup a connectionstring as an environment variable. According to the comments in the launch.json file:

    // Environment variables passed to the program.
    &quot;env&quot;: { }

I have tried adding my environment variable like so:

    &quot;env&quot;:
    {
    &quot;CONNECTION_STRING&quot;: &quot;Data Source=server;Initial Catalog=catalog;User ID=uid;Password=pwd;MultipleActiveResultSets=true&quot;
    }

This causes an error when I try to launch my app; &quot;OpenDebug process has terminated unexpectedly&quot;. I have not yet found any log files, etc. that might explain what the issue is.

I know this app works correctly when I setup the environment variable and launch my app from the standard command prompt. The app also runs as expected if I comment out my variable in the launch.json file; I just can&#39;t connect to the database.

I am assuming that I am using the wrong format in the launch.json file, but I have not yet found any way to make this work.

Any ideas?

Right now when I use &lt;kbd&gt;⌘&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;O&lt;/kbd&gt; to search for files, the fuzzy matching appears to operate over all files in the current project. Unfortunately, this includes a number of files from build and vendor directories. So, for instance, if I want to search for all JavaScript files and do &lt;kbd&gt;⌘&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;O&lt;/kbd&gt; and type `.js` in, the file and symbol results include around 1500 hits and all of them except the two ones are complete noise.

Is there a way to specify certain directories to be ignored for purpose of search?

Visual Studio Code reports &quot;It look like git is not installed on your system.&quot; when I try to switch to the git view. I know I have git installed and used by other git clients. I guess if I re-install git following Visual Studio Code&#39;s instruction (&quot;install it with Chocolatey or download it from git-scm.com&quot;), it probably can fix the problem, but I don&#39;t want to mess up the existing git clients on my system. Is there a reliable way to configure Visual Studio Code so it can find existing git installation?

I can&#39;t seem to locate a built in mechanism to store user settings. I was hoping that electron provided a standard method for storing user settings across all desktop platforms. If there isn&#39;t a precedent for this I can implement it myself, I just didn&#39;t want to jump to a custom solution immediately. Research online is pretty sparse in this area. Thanks!

Where to store user settings in Electron (Atom Shell) Application?

I&#39;m using `Electron` (formerly atom-shell) and would like to have a minimalist frame window so that the three OSX window buttons (close, maximize, minimize) are visible from **within** the HTML page.

I set the Electron option `frame` to `false` when defining the [`BrowserWindow`][1] to have a chromeless, frameless window.

And I thought I could handle the close button with something like this:

    &lt;a btn href=&quot;#&quot; id=&quot;close&quot; onclick=&quot;window.top.close(); return false&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

With no luck, sadly. Any idea how to achieve this?
