Cannot open solution file in Visual Studio Code

Question

I have installed the Visual Studio Code on Windows  When I try to open a solution file in VS Code it opens the solution file  instead of opening all projects in solution  Is there a way to open existing project solutions in VS Code

When you open a folder in VSCode  it will automatically scan the folder for typical project artifacts like project json or solution files  From the status bar in the lower left side you can switch between solutions and projects

VSCode is a code editor  not a full IDE  Think of VSCode as a notepad on steroids with IntelliSense code completion  richer semantic code understanding of multiple languages  code refactoring  including navigation  keyboard support with customizable bindings  syntax highlighting  bracket matching  auto indentation  and snippets   It s not meant to replace Visual Studio  but making  Visual Studio  part of the name in VSCode will of course confuse some people at first

But you can open the folder with the  SLN in to edit the code in the project  which will detect the  SLN to select the library that provides Intellisense
