  <p>Visual studio code 
  <code>1.5.3</code></p>
  
  <p>Xming <code>6.9.0.31</code></p>
  
  <p>I had to jump quite a lot of hoops to get <a href="http://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/linux" rel="noreferrer">visual studio code</a> installed. At the end, I managed to do that. 
  When I run</p>
  
  <p><code>code</code> or <code>code .</code></p>
  
  <p>It returns to the command line immediately with no error.</p>
  
  <p>Then I ran</p>
  
  <pre><code>code --verbose
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the following messages.</p>
  
  <pre><code>OpenGL Warning:

  <p>Also, installing node.js didnt help. Xwindow forwaring works fine for other programs, such as ImageMagick, QtCreator. etc.</p>
