Tempe High School VSCode Setup

Visual Studio Code is the cross-platform coding environment we will use across both Stage 5 Computer Technology and Stage 6 Software Engineering. When we use GitHub CodeSpaces in the cloud, we are using a virtualised version of Visual Studio Code. This repo contains the example profiles to improve your development experience and links to templates for the main language environments we will use.
