Visual Studio Community is an IDE, but Visual Studio Code is just an editor. VScode is faster to start, as a light editor. VSCode needs configuration to run codes, that might be a trouble. VS is easier to run and debug codes, but once you done the configurations, VScode could do this easily too. For study and small project, and you can't stand the starting speed of heavy IDE, VScode could be a great choice, but you will spend some time to study how to correctly use it. For study and and huge project, VS is agreat choice. But I think you should try and installed both at first.
