I think that we limit ourselves when the question is either/or.
Personally I use JetBrains for work and for languages that I'm still learning (Ruby and RoR), vscode for almost anything web because their support for JS is unreal. I use vim for pretty much every config file and quick edits, and will find myself pulling up vim when I need to make some more complicated edits on a file since macros on vim are AWESOME.
And then I use emacs (with EVIL) for beancount files and it works phenomenally for that! I have used it for some Elixir and it just works!
Emacs is really less of an editor and more like a framework/platform/dare I say OS? It allows you to customize and build on top of it like no other software I've come across.
So I'd say, if you are up for exploring check out emacs (I would just start by installing EVIL instead of trying to learn all the "chords" that emacs uses by default) and enjoy the journey!
- rg111 5y agoThis makes sense. When I used to write Js, I used VS Code anyway, because its support for Js is really good. I still used vim for everything else. I will keep both. Thanks.
