Xbox Music – the music streaming service that can be used on any Windows (including Xbox consoles), iOS or Android device was renamed Groove after users were confused on whether they needed an Xbox to stream music. For example, Outlook for Windows is different from Outlook for iOS. So, why name the newly launched product Visual Code for Mac when it’s not Visual Studio? Naming was never a Microsoft strength. The rebranded tool doesn’t offer new features that weren’t already available in Xamarin Studio, so, for now, mobile development is the only thing you can do with Visual Studio for Mac.
Contrary to what the name suggests, Visual Studio Code for MacOS is not the Windows equivalent it’s a rebranding of Xamarin Studio IDE, a C# development environment for the Mac, which Microsoft acquired earlier this year.
