Debugging in Unity (C#) + Visual Studio Code Work on OS X?

Question

I really like the idea of working with Visual Studio, C# and Unity on OS X.

Has anyone made debugging with C# in Unity work with Visual Studio Code on OS X?

Hi the solution is https://github.com/dotBunny/VSCode This plugin works on both MacOS and Windows and gives you the following capabilities:

•An option to enable VS Code integration (Editor –> Assets –> Enable Integration), this updates your solution files and (more importantly) keeps them in sync. This also sets the preferred external tool editor in the Unity preferences. *Note, the old “Sync MonoDevelop” option is now gone in the Unity editor from V5.2

•It writes out the necessary (and sometimes hard to find) VS Code configuration files, including the ability to hide “non-code” files in the editor (hides things like .sln, .csproj and the ever present unity .meta files) There are a couple of other settings in there to help speed up the integration.

•Automatically launches VS Code direct to your project folder, EVERY-TIME. no longer do you have to worry about keeping that window open, or switching around if you work on multiple projects

One thing to be aware of, once you enable the VSCode integration, changing your preferred code editor in the External Tools preferences will have no effect as the plugin takes over opening code files. If you want to use another editor, you’ll have to disable the integration first.

These are just the main highlights as there are more features in there as well.

Currently you need to download the plugin files from GitHub
