I can't get the features of VIM in an IDE. I CAN get IDE features in VIM. I get syntax highlighting, Automatic Checks, Navigation based on Language structures. I even can integrate my shell and debuggers into VIM, but I don't use do that. I use those usually just as a stand alone tool. VIM and Emacs also have the absolute best git integration I have ever seen. Magit for emacs and Fugitive for Vim are absolutely fantastic. Certainly beats any IDE I have ever used. I can't think of anything that I would like to have from any IDE. MY vim is a much better tool for me then any of the IDEs that I have used in the last 10 Years. I started out with IDEs, because that is what my teachers and mentors used, but once I learned vim the IDEs just seem painfully slow and limited. It is also not the case that I just don't know better. I certainly have used many IDEs in the past. For example I used Visual Studio (Not "VS Code", the proper enterprise VS) for 2 Years.
