I'm not ready for transition (using atom at the moment and considering spacemacs due to elixir), but VS Code is really impressive in terms of speed. Atom is cool, but it's really slow. I thought it was because Electron, MS proved me wrong. Point for them.

I switched from Atom a few weeks ago, and haven't back. I do miss Atom's regex support in Find All, but I use it rarely enough that I can just fire up Atom when I need it. Enough of the keyboard commands are borrowed from Atom that it makes the switch pretty painless.

  VSCode has regex support in find all (it's the little .* that you see on the right-side of the search box).

      The last comment on that issue from alexandrudima makes it look like it'll be in the next release, if we're lucky.

  Brackets 'find all' is pretty amazing. It is fast enough that it lists results in realtime as you type. I find myself using Brackets just for the amazing fast search. Also, Brackets can jump to source of functions of just plain JavaScript like WebStorm. Last I tried, VS code still doesn't do this yet.

  I posted this in the Atom thread yesterday, but I think it's worth repeating: I love VS Code and have been using it as my main editor for quite a while now, but the lack of project-wide find and replace is why I still keep Atom around: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/1690 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/1690 This glaring omission combined with the proposed performance improvements in the Atom 1.9 beta might just be enough to tempt me back to the Atom side again.
