VS Code and Code4i - The one stop shop for developers

Monday October 26, 2026 9:00am - 10:00am EDT

TBD

Visual Studio Code has quickly become one of the most popular development environments, and with the Code4i extension it’s a powerful option for IBM i developers. In this session, I’ll show you why VS Code is my tool of choice and how Code4i, along with a handful of other must-have extensions, can transform your development workflow. Most of these tools are free, and my entire setup runs for about $20 a month. If the stars align, I’ll also do a live demo of my environment so you can see firsthand how these tools fit together into a cost-effective, productivity-boosting toolkit.
