A few month later (from Nov. 2017 to May 2018), the Live Share feature is now ready: see "Visual Studio Live Share Public Preview", and "Visual Studio Live Share" to download the extension.

The documentation explains, for Visual Studio Code, how to share:

Start a collaboration session

Now, simply click the "Share" status bar item or hit Ctrl+Shift+P and select "Live Share: Start a collaboration session (Share)".

Share button: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/liveshare/media/vscode-share-button.png

Note: You may be asked by your desktop firewall software to allow the Live Share agent to open a port the first time you share. Accepting this is entirely optional but enables a secured "direct mode" to improve performance when the person you are working with is on the same network as you are.
See changing the connection mode for details.

An invite link will be automatically copied to your clipboard.
When opened in a browser, this link allows others to join a new collaboration session that shares contents of these folders with them.

You will also see the "Share" status bar item transition to represent the session state. See session state information below for what this looks like.

Note that if you need to get the invite link again after you've started sharing, you access it again by clicking on the session state status bar icon and select "Invite Others (Copy Link)".
