VSCode is very, very bare bones compared to what JetBrains can offer in terms of refactoring, debugging, and code analysis (for major languages).
It's hard to start at anything specific :)
- lostmsu 4y agoFor Rust I found CLion to have no improvement over VS Code.
- kunos 4y agoNot for Rust tho. VSCode+Rust Analyzer offers an amazing experience and I found it to be on-par if not better than IntelliJ/Clion with a much more responsive editing, startup times and task customization.
- baby 4y agoConsidering that JetBrains doesn't use rust-analyzer I have a hard time imagining that it's better, more that it's worse :o
- rudnevr 4y agoAbsolutely, and I wonder how people who are not professional in both IDEs can compare. Typically VSCode + plugins + some additional software from old time like BeyondCompare etc. poorly make up Intellij's core functionality. I haven't seen a single person who seriously used both and went back. Search, VCS, keymapping, defaults, heuristics, refactoring wide of use, AI-based autocompletion - there's simply no real adversary. Last time I was blasted when copying an old DB to a one in a new DB it correctly guessed the renamed columns based partly on type and size, partly on column names. Also I love its suggestions so much that when learning a new language I always look at Jetbrains' respective autosuggestions - simply because it makes me a better programmer, faster.
