Does VSCode have built-in support or extensions available for VB.NET?
I'm running Ubuntu 17.04 and learning VB. I cannot find any extensions for VB.NET.
Is there an extension or would a Windows VM be a better option?

Interesting. I had a look and I couldn't find anything but according to this it must have done at some point. I also don't think it's relevant to the OS so a Windows VM wouldn't make a difference as far as I can tell.

you can't run VB.NET on Linux as far as I know, so possibly the extension isn't available for the Linux version of vscode. Would make some sense, as it'd be impossible to run a debugger or anything. So your choices are 1) use a windows VM, 2) learn C# instead, which runs on more platforms and is also more widely used generally.

@ADyson I couldn't see an extension anyway for VB.NET. I'm not familiar with the software so maybe I'm missing something. I didn't know that about Linux though. Why would C# be OK though?

@Bugs because C# is supported on Linux via both the .NET Core and Mono frameworks.

@Reimott correction to what I said above, running VSCode in Windows will not help you. But, with a VM, you could run Visual Studio Community Edition instead (assuming you don't want to pay for Visual Studio). Personally, I'd go the C# route though because I think it has a better future, but it depends what you want/need to achieve.

I couldn't find anything on the Marketplace other than VBScript and VBA extensions:
VS Marketplace: VB.NET extensions
But since you are learning VB.NET I would suggest to download Visual Studio Community and play with it and develop an application. Then you're also learning the .NET environment.
I started the same with Forms applications, but now only use WPF, because it's a better option to design nicer GUIs.
If you really want to use VS Code then an VM or dual boot is your best bet.
