SAS Bowl XXV, SAS Extension for Visual Studio Code was packed with questions and information on the new developer's tool for the popular IDE. The timing of the event was perfect. Our winner, and long-time SAS Bowl participant @ronan, indicated he had just started looking into VS Code for work. He then realized SAS and VS Code were crossing paths with the extension and at the SAS Bowl. Plain serendipitous.
