Visual Studio Code’s built-in debugger UI launches your C++ debugger of choice under the hood, creating an intuitive, yet customizable, debugging experience across Linux, macOS, and Windows.


Throughout the years, our customers have helped shape the direction of C++ development in VS Code by asking for key features and reporting bugs.

The C++ extension brings a rich set of productivity features to VS Code for C++ developers, including IntelliSense smart code completion, debugging, refactoring, code navigation, and more! On top of that, these features are adaptable to various platforms, architectures and compilers, enabling all your cross-compiling and remote development scenarios. We’re excited to announce the first generally available release of the C++ extension for Visual Studio Code! Visual Studio Code is a free code editor that runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and is highly-customizable to make it exactly what you want it to be.
