Similar experience here. I find IntelliJ autocomplete, syntax highlighting, compilation etc. to be laggy occasionally as well, but I can usually see why and wait for it to finish reindexing or whatever. With VSCode, I don't bother waiting because 1) I often can't visually see why it's not working or when it's ready to work again, and 2) sometimes it's never going to be ready, because something stopped working. I am still actively using both, because I prefer VSCode for Javascript and expect it to eventually catch up for Java and Scala, but I often switch from VSCode to IntelliJ in the middle of a session, never vice-versa.
- phist_mcgee 6y agoI literally switched from VSCode to Webstorm purely because JS/TS 'no definition found' errors kept coming up. If I ctrl click a function, I really really want to go to the defintion. I know there is a definition because my code compiles. How can my IDE not know where that definition is? I count that as one of the core features of an IDE, and VSCode doesn't consistently hit that mark.
