    Coming from VS Code

    ↗ View as Markdown

    V3Code is a VS Code fork, so your setup comes with you — pull settings from VS Code, Cursor, or Windsurf.

    V3Code is a fork of VS Code, so it should feel like home from the first launch — your muscle memory, keybindings, and the extension ecosystem all carry over. And you don’t have to rebuild your setup by hand.

    In Settings → Transfer, pull your extensions and settings from an editor you already use:

    • Transfer from VS Code
    • Transfer from Cursor
    • Transfer from Windsurf

    One click brings your existing configuration into V3Code, so you start where you left off instead of from a blank slate.

    The editor is familiar; the intelligence is what’s new. Once you’re in, the parts worth learning are the agent modes, Context Bridge, and memory — the things a plain VS Code fork doesn’t have.
