- realusername 4y agoTo each their own, I would still continue to use VSCode even if IntelliJ's current version was free. Even Jetbrain themselves realised this since they are creating a VSCode clone called Fleet.
- nikkwong 4y agoGranted; I was very junior then--and I think my issues may have been mostly related to the finnicky nature of java tooling and dependencies rather than the IDE itself.
- happymellon 4y agoI use both, and it really depends on the language. Something like Java is really benefitted from IntelliJ, Spring integration is excellent, but especially scripting languages like Python or JavaScript/Typescript don't get enough uplift and you might as well use VS Code.
- acchow 4y agoI mean for Java. IntelliJ is made for Java. If you want to do Python, Jetbrains (the creator of IntelliJ) made PyCharm. For Javascript, they made Webstorm.
