This. I love the look of awe sublime people have when I open webstorm - perform a "go to definition" and it just works.
It's amazing how many capabilities people miss on.
- Lio 11y agoI guess it depends on the code base you're working on. My main experience of using webstorm was on a client's legacy code base. Their policy was that webstorm had to used over any other tool. None of the clever feature like go to definition worked properly and it ended up just dropping back to grepping for symbols project wide. Personally I couldn't see any features you couldn't get from using TernJS and ctags with a quality editor. I found it a bit slow and the keyboard navigation to be about limited. (Not in the main editor so much but in little things like navigating window splits, manipulating pairs, etc)
- awalGarg 11y agoSublime Text can do "go to definition" just fine, out of the box. F12 is the key you are looking for.
- inglor 11y agoOnly if you're on the same file, in large projects in the best case scenario it becomes stuck for 15 seconds, usually it just doesn't work.
- kristopolous 11y agoCtags is older than dirt and does this fine.
