Vim? Emacs? Anything from jetbrains (although technically that's an IDE)?

• WalterGR 9y ago
  How much of Jetbrains' IDEs are not written in Java?
  • hota_mazi 9y ago
    Probably just a few percents, which are likely written in Kotlin.

    Java is more "native" than anything with Electron. Starting by the fact that not only there are commercial native compilers, Java 9 also started the road to have AOT compilation support with the long term plan to replace the C++ parts with Java (aka System Java, Project Metropolis). Also there are hooks in Swing and JavaFX to interact with the host GUI, or if using something like SWT a pure native wrapper to host GUI controls.

      That may well be true. Are we calling Java "native" now? This is my first time hearing it.
      • pjmlp 9y ago
        Java has always been native to those that knew where to buy native code AOT compilers. Unless you mean D, Go, Haskell, OCaml aren't native.
