Visual Studio Code With ASP.NET MVC Project

Question

I just downloaded Visual Studio Code and try for a couple hours as common editor, and it works really amazing. But when I want to open my currently running ASP.Net MVC Project, it doesn't detect the project as working project, that I can't use the InteliSense provided for C#.

Can I open the ASP.Net MVC Project that created from Visual Studio? If can, then what should I do in order to achieve this?

Answer 1

open folder rather than just file and it will work

Answer 2

Basically VSCode supports two project systems:

1. DNX projects with project.json and global.json files and
2. MSBuild projects.

The support for the latter is a bigger challenge and not yet perfect. If you have a sln and csproj files VSCode should detect that and start. Can you check the flame in the lower left if OmniSharp has started and can you check the log (Ctrl+L,L) for messages?
