Answer 1

I just made a symbolic link from the "code" program supplied in the Visual Studio Code.app bundle to /usr/local/bin (a place where I prefer to put stuff like that and which is already in my path on my machine).

You can make a symbolic link using ln -s like this:

ln -s /Applications/Visual\ Studio\ Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/bin/code /usr/local/bin/code
