How to work on react native for windows using VS Code?

1.6k views Asked by At

I'm always working in VS Code and decided to try out React Native for Windows. I followed instructions here. But after I ran command npx react-native run-windows I got following error:

error Unable to find vswhere

I searched online and so far found that React Native for Windows should be developed using Visual Studio. Is there a way to develop using VS Code without downloading full Visual Studio?

please kindly post on https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows instead. This should be possible if you install the rnw dependencies.
