I was looking for a such a book to understand Visual Studio Code.
The Multi-cursor editing amongst other basic editing tools is a great help especially when having to select multiple occurrences of the same text and edit at the same time. The instructions are fully detailed with plenty of screenshots to help drive the points across. The shortcuts shown in the book are great to navigate Visual Studio Code and provide great time savers. The code snippets are also very helpful at limiting the amount of time taken to write the code. The themes and extensions are great I especially liked the way the author teaches you how to create a new extensions.json file with your recommended extensions. Learning how to install extensions from the CLI is of course very valuable information. I am already a certified Azure Administrator however still not being able to land a job in that field. Section 2 was a great refresher course in Azure and have a better understanding of Azure Devops and Angular frameworks now. Debugging practices and examples are on point. I was unable to completely grasp the concept of using containers however now I understand and know how Docker and Kubernetes work. I greatly applaud the author of this book and have faith that with the knowledge attained by reading and following the examples on Developing Multiplatform Apps with Visual Studio Code, that I am now ready to pass any future job interviews and have faith that I will be be able to attain a job as a Cloud Administrator.

Look fine to me, lot of extra topics (extension, vscode, debugging, Angular)
The book has about 300 pages. The first 10% is on the tool VsCode. It is perfect for someone getting started with VsCode. For those who already use VsCode, you can skip the first chapter, and even chapter two dedicated to extensions can be skimmed.The rest of the book is organized into few topics like using Kafka with Azure Event hub, how to run a service that runs in the background, and the it starts building a web application. My personal takes on "multiplatform" were not to create a web application but maybe an Electron or an application within a container. So, be aware of what you are getting into. In my perspective, chapter 6 can be skipped if you know how to debug. Chapter 7 is interesting if you never deployed a Docker or never used Kubernetes. The idea of container and images are both well covered by the author. Chapter 8 could have been removed since it is a stretch of the main topic: Git and Azure DevOpsOverall, the book is fine if you want to jump into Docker with having information about VsCode. The book title is a little bit misnamed, in my opinion, and should have demonstrated how to build that can be run on Windows and MacOS for example. The use of image is still relevant and the use of many techniques would still be great. Still a good read.
