When did VS Code get the same level of user discoverability, customizability, and interactivity as Emacs? I took a look at it a few years ago and it didn’t have anything remotely close to what Emacs offers while working considerably worse out of the box for development than Doom. Is it worth taking another look?
- AlanYx 3y agoDiscoverability and interactivity are debatable, but customizability is still not VSCode's forte. It's easy to knock up some quick elisp to scratch an itch in Emacs, whereas just printing Hello World in VSCode requires a bunch of scaffolding as an extension.
- PurpleRamen 3y agoSome customizing being easier, doesn't mean it's overall more customizable. Both have a different focus in customizing, and different areas where it's easy or hard.
