VS or no VS - Azure DevOps

[plott722]

Trying to setting up a new Fabric landscape and it appears I can to all of my CI/CD via Azure DevOps and deployment pipelines.  Wondering if I need to us VS or VSCode.

Pros and cons of using one of these tools vs not using them.

Hello @plott722 

Since Azure DevOps pipelines are managed independently via YAML files, you can use any text editor to write and manage your configuration files.

Vscode is a fast, lightweight editor , on the other hand visual studio full-fledged IDE that can be resource intensive

Without an IDE, you can focus  on maintaining pipelines and deployment processes directly through Azure DevOps ui.
