Speaking to VS Code here, I am yet to feel that '10x slow down', one bit, so yes it's absolutely worth it.
(I don't hand-edit 5.62 MB XML files often).
- bpicolo 10y agoHave you used other editors much? I use Sublime Text as my daily driver, and often pull in VS code for some specific features. It feels so incredibly sluggish by comparison.
- allover 10y agoYep, I used Sublime for a while, and I'm a Vim user as primary editor for the last 6 years. Planning on switching to VS Code full-time as soon as I can figure out how to add a couple of simple bindings to (custom) things I have setup in Vim. It's snappy as hell for me, on a mid-range Mac Mini. Really impressed with the Vim mode, which includes things like tab support which other projects (like SpaceMacs) don't. Granted startup time takes about 10 seconds, but then my iTerm startup time is pretty similar on this machine, so that doesn't bother me. Once my editor is open I'm going to leave it open all day (and ditch my Vim habits of perpetual ctrl-z/fg).
- bpicolo 10y agoThe best thing for me has been that VS code has a sane php debugger (PHP has a truly awful debugging experience in general, though that's in line with the rest of the language ;) ). Sublime's PHP debugging addons are not good. I think my biggest VS Code complaint right now is it seems to hide tabs away once I have like 3-5 open. Is there a way to get it to shrink tabs (like browsers/sublime) to have them all open and visible?
