I'm posting this here because I can't find a forum for VSCode and I see other Qs re VSCode in here (although that seems utterly bizarre to me - Visual Studio and VSCode are completely unrelated IDEs as far as I can tell - I suspect that VSCode is a JavaScript/TypeScript app).
I just watched Filip W's talk way back at NDC Sydney 2017 on the CSI that ships with Roslyn. His demonstrations were all in VSCode so I decided to try likewise. I installed the latest VSCode and then installed the Microsoft C# extension, which to my understanding comes with both omnisharp and CSI.
I created and saved a .csx Hello World file and hit F5 expecting to see "Hello World" appear in the output window. Instead VSCode opened the file settings.json. I have Googled this file and have actually found precious little about it. Yes I quickly found a list of the settings that one can set in it, but nothing about what it needs as a prerequisite to running CSX files in the CSI.
Also, Intellisense isn't working although syntax highlighting is - mentioning that in case it provides any clues.
[EDIT]
I left out a step. When I hit F5 it first asked me to select an environment, so I clicked ".Net Core" as seeming the most appropriate. It was then that it opened the settings.json file.
[END EDIT]
Anyone able to either throw any light on this or better still point me in the direction of some decent documentation that actually explains what is going on here?
