I created a project in VSC using this command: "dotnet new web -o TodoApi" but when I press Ctrl + F5 nothing happens. I'm trying to run the project

Do you have VS Code set up for use with C#?
The plugin installed and all?
i have the C# extension installed if thats what u mean
Yeah
$vscode
1) Install the C# extension
2)
2.a) DO NOT USE OPEN FILE
2.b) Always use
Open Folder (from the File menu), and open the folder containing your sln file (or the folder containing the csproj if you have only one csproj)
3) To make the extension start and detect C#, either:
3.a) wait for the prompt that will appear on the bottom right of your screen that ask you if you want it to create some files, and say Yes
3.b) Command Palette (F1 or Ctrl+Shift+P) and type > .Net : Generate Assets for build and run
4) you should see a flame on the Status bar with the Omnisharp logo (see second attached screenshot)
5) it should load to finally say OmniSharp server is running (if not ask for help)

Make sure you followed the other steps as well
VSCode needs some elbow grease to get it working somewhat-properly
It's probably never going to be as good as other IDEs, though
should i be using another ide?
Visual Studio
Or Rider
ok ill try VS
It's working on Visual Studio! thanks
