Requirements for Visual Studio Code
Hardware
Visual Studio Code is a small download (< 200 MB) and has a disk footprint of < 500 MB. VS Code is lightweight and should easily run on today's hardware.
We recommend:
- 1.6 GHz or faster processor
- 1 GB of RAM
Platforms
VS Code is supported on the following platforms:
- OS X El Capitan (10.11+)
- Windows 8.0, 8.1 and 10, 11 (32-bit and 64-bit)
- Linux (Debian): Ubuntu Desktop 16.04, Debian 9
- Linux (Red Hat): Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, CentOS 7, Fedora 34
Not supported
- VS Code does not support application virtualization solutions such as Microsoft App-V or MSIX for Windows, or third-party app virtualization technologies.
- Running VS Code in a virtual machine environment requires a full operating system.
- VS Code does not support multiple simultaneous users using the software on the same machine, including shared virtual desktop infrastructure machines or a pooled Windows/Linux Virtual Desktop host pool.
- Running the full VS Code in Windows/Linux containers is not supported but running with the Dev Containers extension is supported. When using the Dev Containers extension, the VS Code server is running in the container while the VS Code client is on the desktop.
Additional Linux requirements
- GLIBCXX version 3.4.21 or later
- GLIBC version 2.17 or later

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
