A Visual Studio Code extension that brings Emacs Org Mode functionality to VS Code, supporting outlines, TODO lists, timestamps, and plain-text document authoring. It is written in TypeScript and distributed via the VS Code Marketplace.

Use cases

• take plain-text notes with outlines in vscode
• manage todo lists in visual studio code
• edit org mode files without emacs
• promote and demote outline headings
• insert and modify timestamps in org files
• customize todo keywords for task tracking
• author documents with org markup in vscode

When to choose

• you want Emacs Org Mode features inside VS Code
• you keep notes and TODO lists in plain text org files
• you need outline editing and TODO cycling in the editor

When to avoid

• you need full Emacs Org Mode features like agenda, capture, or babel
• you use editors other than VS Code
• you need actively developed cutting-edge org features, as the project is in maintenance
