I'm using a light laptop with integrated graphics, an i5 from the 10th generation, and unfortunately, it has only 8GB of RAM, which can't be upgraded. It also features a touchscreen and originally came with Windows 10, but that hasn't been running smoothly for me. I'm looking for a lightweight operating system that supports touchscreen functionality and allows me to use VS Code for some light programming tasks.

I recommend giving Fedora Kinoite a shot on your convertible laptop; it works great! If you're doing development work, though, you might want to switch to Fedora KDE since it doesn't require containerization for VS Code.
Don't forget to mention the specific model of your laptop; it can really help others suggest the best solutions for you! For example, I use a Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 and have had good experiences with different Linux distros.
Endeavor OS with KDE or LXQt is another good pick if you're aiming for something even lighter. It'll give you that speed boost while still being functional.
