What is VS Code?

Visual Studio Code commonly referred to as VS code is a free and open-source code editor developed by Microsoft. VSCode is widely used by developers for various programming languages and platforms to write, edit and run code in a seamless, integrated environment.

When will learners need access to VS Code?

VS code is a requirement for the Software Engineering programmes starting from the flying start. It is fundamental that the learners have access to an integrated development environment (IDE) prior to starting their bootcamp.

What access will learners need to VS Code?

Learners must have VS Code installed locally onto their device. VS Code is a free code editor meaning no paid licence is required.

What data will be used within VS Code?

Multiverse places a great deal of emphasis on data governance, and ensures learners are taught how to responsibly work with sensitive and personal data before introducing them to writing code in VSCode.

Since learners must apply their knowledge to actual business cases, it is crucial that they have access to internal datasets while following any organisational guidelines. You can help support the learner to derive maximum value from the programme by establishing clear guidelines for data management and documenting any internal data governance policies and processes.
