* onboarding: let developerMode bypass experiment gating Developer mode for a scenario now bypasses the experiment gate in addition to the usage and once-per-user gates: an experiment-linked tour is shown even when the experiment is not running or the user is in the control arm. No assignment-context telemetry gate is opened in that case, so a developer preview never affects an experiment scorecard. Also documents the three automatic-eligibility rules (onboarding.enabled master switch, experiment gating, and ungated tours) across the service, config, and experiment types, and adds tests covering the new developer-mode behavior.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * onboarding: don't open telemetry gate in developer mode CI surfaced a failing unit test: the developer-mode control-arm preview did not open the telemetry gate, but the test expected it to. Make this behavior explicit and deterministic instead — a developer-mode preview now shows the tour unconditionally and never opens the assignment-context telemetry gate (in any arm), so a local preview can never affect an experiment scorecard. Update the failing test expectation and the docs to match.

Visual Studio Code - Open Source ("Code - OSS")
The Repository
This repository ("Code - OSS") is where we (Microsoft) develop the Visual Studio Code product together with the community. Not only do we work on code and issues here, but we also publish our roadmap, monthly iteration plans, and our endgame plans. This source code is available to everyone under the standard MIT license.
Visual Studio Code
Visual Studio Code is a distribution of the Code - OSS repository with Microsoft-specific customizations released under a traditional Microsoft product license.
Visual Studio Code combines the simplicity of a code editor with what developers need for their core edit-build-debug cycle. It provides comprehensive code editing, navigation, and understanding support along with lightweight debugging, a rich extensibility model, and lightweight integration with existing tools.
Visual Studio Code is updated monthly with new features and bug fixes. You can download it for Windows, macOS, and Linux on Visual Studio Code's website. To get the latest releases every day, install the Insiders build.

See our wiki for a description of each of these channels and information on some other available community-driven channels.
Related Projects
Many of the core components and extensions to VS Code live in their own repositories on GitHub. For example, the node debug adapter and the mono debug adapter repositories are separate from each other. For a complete list, please visit the Related Projects page on our wiki.
Bundled Extensions
VS Code includes a set of built-in extensions located in the extensions folder, including grammars and snippets for many languages. Extensions that provide rich language support (inline suggestions, Go to Definition) for a language have the suffix language-features. For example, the json extension provides coloring for JSON and the json-language-features extension provides rich language support for JSON.
Development Container
This repository includes a Visual Studio Code Dev Containers / GitHub Codespaces development container.
-
For Dev Containers, use the Dev Containers: Clone Repository in Container Volume... command which creates a Docker volume for better disk I/O on macOS and Windows.
- If you already have VS Code and Docker installed, you can also click here to get started. This will cause VS Code to automatically install the Dev Containers extension if needed, clone the source code into a container volume, and spin up a dev container for use.
-
For Codespaces, install the GitHub Codespaces extension in VS Code, and use the Codespaces: Create New Codespace command.
Docker / the Codespace should have at least 4 cores and 6 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended) to run a full build. See the development container README for more information.
