I thought VS Code was built on top of Electron (which is just a shell)? "Visual Studio Code (I call it VSCode, myself) is a new free developer tool. It's a code editor, but a very smart one. It's cross-platform, built with TypeScript and Electron, and runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux." via: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/IntroducingVisualStudioCodeForWindowsMacAndLinux.aspx
With the editor layer above that called Monaco ( http://weblogs.asp.net/jongalloway/a-quick-look-at-the-new-visual-studio-online-quot-monaco-quot-code-editor ). And then you have OmniSharp <http://www.omnisharp.net/> as the C# intellisense provider ( https://code.visualstudio.com/updates#_languages-c35-on-omnisharp-111).
