> Seventy-five percent of developers use Visual Studio Code
75% of what developers? Hobbyists? Students? Professionals? Because last one is the only relevant metric as all editors strive towards it.
- bitwize 3y agoProfessionals, from Stack Overflow's user surveys.

Combining all IntelliJ forks will yield at least half of the market and given how heavyweight they are, it’s reasonable to assume that VSCode is used as a “dumber”, “faster” for quick edits while actual work is done in “real” IDEs (that’s what I and my colleagues do anyway, I personally know at least 7 people with setup like that).
