@AmberZhang2016 Edit and Continue is a large and very connected feature which we don't have any immediate plans to bring to VS Code. I will leave this open, and people feel free to '+1' this. But, just to be clear, it is at least going to be a while before we get to this.

Very interested in something like this. Working from macOS with dotnet can be tough, this would really aid in the development process

Recently discovered dotnet watch with .net core. Having the same functionality with the addition of debugging would be great!

So we've been waiting for this to happen since 2016. Is it too optimistic to wait for this to happen in 2026? Asking for a friend.
No seriously, this is one of the most important features that IMO VS has that VSCode doesn't, and heck, it's save me so much time when developing because restarting apps sometimes takes way too long. This is the only feature I miss from VS.

With the removal of hot reload in
dotnet watchI don't think this will happen anytime soon. Google the saga if you like, it made quite some noise.darkguy2008 commentedon Oct 4, 2022
Huh, I recall there was some noise regarding that, but if I'm not mistaken they backed off from that decision and made it to stay. Was this changed recently then? I may have missed the news :(
In that case, is there any place where we can add some pressure on that?
PhilParisot commentedon Oct 4, 2022
Never-mind, you might be right, I think they put it back in: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/test/hot-reload?view=aspnetcore-6.0

This feature is now available in C# Dev Kit. See the documentation for more information.

@gregg-miskelly it's really disappointing that this feature was not implemented as a part of this open-source extension 😕
