Isn't using VsCode for a non-Microsoft language going to be difficult, by (MS's) design? I'm not saying it can't/hasn't be/been done, but I doubt MS are making it easier to do so. It's been their m.o. for a long time now.
I'm also not saying there's a better option for you and your team, either, my friend.
As a python programmer using bare-bones vim (on purpose), having abandoned all fancy IDEs, I really wouldn't know where the state of the art is, anyway, but I doubt the MS leopard has changed its spots.

Python is pretty close to a 'Microsoft language' these days. They've hired several Python core developers to make sure windows is first class citizen for python and the developing python on windows and with VSCode is as good an experience as possible. They also develop the official VS Code Python extension and language server as well as many other python tools and extensions.
I'd say the current state-of-the-art is either VSCode with the Microsoft python extensions or Jetbrain's PyCharm. Personally I slightly prefer PyCharm Pro, but it's pretty much a toss up.
