Yes, I write my own code in BBEdit. When there's no collaboration needed, it's more than adequate, and the Mac integration (AppleScript API) is great. VS Code is good for git blame integrations, finding references to functions in a deeply nested project, and using extensions. It's an IDE, not just a text editor. So I suppose it depends on your use case: if you're the only developer, a text editor is enough. If you're working in a larger team, an IDE can be helpful.
