Although inspired by VS Code Stories, Direct Messages is a utility tool for developers which increases their productivity by enabling distraction-free messages inside the text editor itself.

Ben awad really paved the way for some cool vscode plugins. Kudos for VS Code DMs.

It look very distracting for me, as things start popup on the screen... How the distraction-free aspect works here?
Oorjit Chowdhary
@farynaio You can disable the pop-up notifications. We label it "distraction-free" because you're able to achieve the purpose without opening any social media app. Additionally, you always have your code in front of you so you know you have to return to it.

@farynaio @oorjitchowdhary If I can keep the conversation in tab, turn off any notifications, and check the tab in my "spare time" than it's ok. I would still prefer to keep my tabs/windows for code only, but maybe I'm in minority or old school ;-) I think the purpose of it is to code more socially, publicly etc. That makes more sense to me, and it should do the job.

This is a good one, keep adding features to it like screen share, group chats etc. and make it a complete environment while working in teams.

@tushar_shahi1 We already have group chats. We'll look into the other features, thanks for your suggestions!

How does this differ from vsChat?
Oorjit Chowdhary
@chrismessina vsChat is vastly different in its approach on implementing messages by providing only one chatroom while we, on the other hand, enable 1-to-1 messaging along with groups to increase collaboration on projects.
