Consider the scenario below and see how the extension benefits developers. We need to meet these users where they are. Based on the Stack Overflow survey results, it’s clear developers do their work in VS Code. The extension is open for use by anyone using VS Code however, there is certainly a user base that would be more apt to adopt it. Rather, I’ll offer some background on why SAS created the tool, how it can benefit users, run through a short use case, and challenge you to be creative in using the extension. I will not go through the specific features in this article. We plan on adding more features over time. The list above is not exhaustive and we're just at the beginning. The extension offers the following features. The extension is available for use on SAS Viya only. Repeat for those who skipped TL DR: The extension is available on SAS’ Visual Studio Marketplace, and we’ve also created the sas-vscode-extension repository on sassoftware GitHub. The tool also offers the ability to connect directly to SAS Viya and run code. The tool offers users an integration point for adding SAS programs and code into their work, without having to switch applications. Rather than asking developers to log into, and code in, the SAS UI, we’ve developed the VS Code SAS Extension. Moral of the story: VS Code is popular in the developer community and is still growing in adoption. In 2019 a survey on Stack Overflow listed VS Code as the IDE of choice for 50% of the developers surveyed. The extension is available for use on SAS Viya. The extension is available on SAS’ Visual Studio Marketplace, and we’ve also created the sas-vscode-extension repository on sassoftware GitHub. SAS has officially released a VS Code SAS programming code extension.
