+# Visual Studio Code (VSCode)
+
+[Visual Studio Code (VSCode)][VSCode] is a popular IDE with an integrated
+debugger UI.
+
+This module provides configuration files to integrate building, debugging,
+uploading and code completion into the IDE:
+
+- `.vscode/tasks.json`: If the `modm:build:scons` and `modm:build:make` module
+  are included, this file wraps the building and uploading commands by profile.
+  You can invoke them by Ctl+Shift+B (macOS: Cmd+Shift+B).
+- `.vscode/c_cpp_properties.json`: Configures IntelliSense for better code
+  completion and for using the correct system headers. You need the
+  [C/C++ extension][] installed.
+- `.vscode/launch.json`: Configures the [Cortex-Debug][] extension to start the
+  debugger with a single click from the IDE.
+
+Note that not all build system features are provided in the IDE, only the most
+common. You can call all build system tools from the command line.
+In addition, the `modm:build:cmake` module is supported natively by the
+[CMake Tools][] extension and is therefore not wrapped.
+
+We recommend adding this module from the command line so that you don't
+accidentally overwrite your modified files later: `lbuild build -m ::vscode`.
+
+Note that some configuration options may be specific to your environment (such
+as the compiler path) and may not work in other environments.
