In my opinion, Visual Studio Code is not in the same category of text editors as Emacs or Vim, especially for keyboard-intensive users. However, it has some highly attractive features and extensions. One such extension uses the languagetool spelling and grammar checker to create a tree widget populated by errors and warnings from languagetool and other sources, including markup validation.
The original Ltex extension for using languagetool no longer seems to be maintained, but this fork is.
