I think you already know about Visual Studio Code (Also known as VSCode), it is an awesome code editor, made by Microsoft.
For beginners, who haven't touched programming yet, VSCode is a code editor, it helps us to code better, you can code even in notepad, but VSCode makes our live easier, auto-complete is an example.
Again, VSCode isn't giving me money for this but it is really good! I've tried many others, VSCode is a good one I prefer it to everyone new to programming, even professionals use it.
VSCode will save your time.
