The linked article has a section about IDE that this one does not touch. I was surprised they are locking them selves in to one tool with their workflow.
I'm a bit worried about the dominance of VS Code. I can't stand the editor and it's popularity just grows and grows.
- lostmsu 3y agoWhat are you using and why?
- ghnws 3y agoIntelliJ. To name a few features I've not been able to get in VS Code or have had a worse experience: - debugger - refactoring (extracting functions and variables, renaming across entire project etc.) - context aware selection (expand selection from cursor logically) - stack trace / error parsing - comparing anything (diff selection with clipboard for example) - DB schema support even in SQL formatted as strings (e.g. when using psycopg) directly from DB by just connecting to a DB - find in files (I've never seen a VS code user have an easy time finding stuff) Etc.
- charcircuit 3y agoThey aren't locking themselves in. It just makes sense to support less IDEs than more IDEs. You can move faster if you don't have to duplicate your work between vscode, intellij, android studio, emacs, vim, etc. Nothing is stop developers from using ed, the standard editor, if they wanted to.
