On Wednesday, during its annual Connect developer event, Microsoft Corp. reinforced its commitment to providing the best experience for any developer, on any device or platform, with several new and updated developer tools and programs from Visual Studio, Azure, Office and Windows, including many new free offers. “As a developer company we want to empower developers with open and flexible technologies that enable innovation on their terms,” said Scott Guthrie, executive vice president, Cloud and Enterprise Group, Microsoft. “The additions of Visual Studio Code beta, the free Visual Studio Dev Essentials program, and .NET Core RC for Linux, OS X and Windows show that Microsoft is now the company working hardest for all developers.”
 
There's only one thing-y that can be said about this announcement:

Ever since they made Visual Studio Community Edition free to individuals and companies that make less the $1,000,000 a year Microsoft really been on a roll supporting smaller developers. Maybe they're getting smart, or maybe they're just desperate to hold on to market share. Visual Studio Code is a pile of junk though, maybe they'll fix it eventually, maybe not.
