Any non-trivial project will require an IDE to manage complexity regardless of language. It's tautological.

  i disagree. Look at the linux kernel. Throw something like eclipse/Jetbrains at it and the whole thing has an aneurysm . If your language requires an IDE, you've already failed

    How do you manage large scale refactoring then?
    • hactually 6y ago
      Be good at your job and not rely on your IDE? Saying that, refactoring Java is the closest thing I've experienced to a slow and painful death so YMMV
