I mean a software ide should be pretty low on the totem pole of software complexity. Edit: (1) because most of the complexity lies in the tool chains that are integrated, like compilers and linters, and (2) because there’s much more complex software out there, mostly at the intersection of engineering domains, to name a few: ballistic guidance systems, IoT and networking, predictive maintenance systems, closed-loop process optimization systems, SLAM robotics
