Atom has better Fountain tools for screenwriting.

VS Code has a Fountain extension as well, which was forked from the Atom extension linked above, but VSC's hasn't been updated since it first came out and is ages behind Atom's.

Does anyone actually use it for screenwriting? I thought serious screenwriters, even amateurs, used dedicated applications.
