Uh hello guys, welcome to this video. So
0:02
in this video, I'll show you a great
0:04
open-source alternative to Visual Studio
0:07
Code which is the number one editor for
0:09
doing coding related things. It tells
0:12
you that it's open source but for some
0:14
things it is not open source. It's
0:16
developed by Microsoft. So that's why
0:19
they have their proprietary license. So
0:22
there is one
0:25
open-source uh
0:28
tool right here which you can search on
0:29
Google VS Codium. So this is the
0:33
software that I'm talking about. It's an
0:35
open-source complete open-source
0:37
binaries of VS code. It's similar to VS
0:40
code but uh it is complete opensource.
0:45
So it doesn't include any sort of
0:47
labeling of Microsoft. It's you can
0:50
search it on Google and uh you can
0:53
install this on your computer. Click on
0:55
download
0:57
and on Windows, Mac,
1:00
Apple, all the operating systems. It's
1:03
an open-source tool.
1:06
So for Windows, we can just install this
1:09
.exe file here.
1:11
So,
1:13
so it is given here. Click on that and
1:19
the download will start. This is for
1:22
x86. This so if your operating system is
1:26
x86. So simply click on that and install
1:30
this. This is a setup file
1:34
107.518
1:36
mgabytes.
1:38
So once it is installed simply click the
1:40
setup thing and simply install this
1:47
can see that
1:55
so it's similar to VS code but uh
1:58
doesn't involve any labeling of
2:00
Microsoft so it's complete opensource so
2:03
you can check out this
2:18
So now it is completed. You can launch
2:20
this.
2:25
So this is VS code and this
2:30
is your VS code here. So by default it
2:33
doesn't comes with uh it comes with zero
2:36
extension. So you can customize
2:38
everything.
2:40
You can set your theme right here.
2:45
All the things you can do that.
2:50
So as you lightweight as well and it
2:52
doesn't take any sort of space. Here you
2:54
can see zero extensions are there. So it
2:58
doesn't comes with
3:04
So as you can see rest of the software
3:07
is same but it is lightweight as
3:10
compared to VS code because it doesn't
3:12
involve the labeling of Microsoft. So if
3:14
you're interested, you can install this
3:16
on your machine as well side by side
3:19
with the VS code. And also check out my
