Visual Studio Code, the popular development text editor and IDE, has rolled out its big July 2025 release. The v1.103 update adds new Git and terminal integrations, better language support, and more.

Codespaces allows users to use a Visual Studio Code-backed editor, terminal, and debugger along with GitHub version control in a browser or on a desktop device.

Git is also the version control standard for GitHub and other source code management systems, and it is widely used with within devops to implement CI/CD.
