What IDE and code editors do you use?

VS Code.
I occasionally change to Atom, but only to change back to VS code because I'm missing packages.
I saw a YouTube video today. They have just released a server version where you can boot up VSCode in the browser and sit with your iPad and program, and it's super awesome!

I'm a Jetbrains guy and use all their IDEs with the IdeaVim plugin :P

Doesn't add much to the conversation as you already use it, but VS code is the best in my opinion. It's hard to beat in almost every way.

If I wasn't using VS code it would be Sublime Text which I used before. It's quite similar to VS code in terms of customisation and extensions!

Vim (actually Neovim). After getting used to it, it's just too productive and last time I had to step into VS code I had to install a vim extension to handle it

Sublime Text. I prefer simplicity.

They made a really good editor in 1976 and 15 years later they made it perfect. It's called Vim.

Sublime Text all the way! Is it perfect? No maybe not.

However I've seen the rise and fall of Eclipse and VSCode seems to be on the same trajectory. A code editor needs to be fast and let me edit code. I don't want a million extensions installed, all of them cobbled together in JavaScript...

Linx (low-code IDE) - https://linx.software

Why ? Language, tool and framework agnostic.

Linx abstracts programming concepts so our tools naturally work like common programming tools. The Linx Designer is an IDE that allows you to program and debug at a higher level and saves the program specification to files that are deployed to one or more Linx Servers to run the application.

Building solutions in Linx should be no different to how you would do it with low-level programming, it’s just with bigger pieces, more visual help and lots of ready-made functionality available on the server-side. You can almost say we’re a low-code Visual Studio for backend development.

disclaimer: I work for Linx

emacs . I can edit anything i want with same key bindings. I can code, write documentation and run the code without leaving my editor. It is fast. It is free and works everywhere mac, windows linux etc.

VS Code on Windows with WSL2 and Devcontainers

VS Code. It's really hard to beat on a TypeScript/Node/React/Tailwind stack. Such a great dev experience

At fabform.io we are big fans of vim. Be warned though, there is a steep learning curve. The good thing is, it's already on every copy of linux out there and you can just terminal into it from anywhere.

There is nothing better than VSCode and its remote development containers for my use cases.

It's simply amazing how you can encapsulate a complete development environment including runtime and IDE presets.

Of course, it has some caveats. Having a strong dependency on the network of your local machine, e. g. when developing mobile apps, is one of them.

VS Code. The plugin marketplace is great. Got both Copilot + Writer (Mintlify) and I don't even have to code anymore 😆

I’m a long-time WebStorm user for anything involving JavaScript and TypeScript. I use Visual Studio Code as a standalone text editor only. If someone could somehow build WebStorm features and ergonomics into a distribution of VS Code, I’d definitely switch.

Following the trend, VSCode. Mainly due to all the shortcuts I've accumulated over the years

I'm not a example of successful person as indie developer for instance(I have a former job but i'm trying new things), but my personal setup is NVim with a bunch of plugins for linting, autocomplete and macros/snippets.

Vs code and visual studio. Xcode. Android studio. Ultraedit, textedit, notepad, Pico.

Beyond compare for compare and merge. (Though vscode have 3 way merge now...)

XCODE

Webstorm (Mac) with IdeaVim plugin. iTerm.

I use VS code because i need to use multiple different languages otherwise i use pycharm because the python features are great

We use Visual Studio Code for the most part, have tested PyCharm as well

PyCharm for Python and Qt Creator for C++. I used to use WingIDE for python.

Another vim user here; but will expand it to saying linux is my IDE ([neo]vim, zsh, tmux with dozens of random scripts / commands integrated)

• getting around is lightning fast with your hands on the home row and no mouse
• modify anything you want to create custom / better workflows
• automate anything you want
• language servers for autocomplete / static analysis / common "IDE" features

Some examples that I find helpful:

• hotkey to create/open matching test file in a split
• running tests on save, automatically when matching file exists (or is test file)
• automate project/session opening (project A has this window layout and opens these programs)
• notifications on long running command completions
• lots of AWS integration to quickly jump into remote environments, even dynamic ones (AWS CLI)
• CLI access to JIRA or other issue repositories
• note taking: jump to daily journal, JIRA task, etc

My needs change a little with every project, so it's nice to have a working model that you can keep improving and iterating on over the years. I do checkout other editors occasionally to see what features I'm missing, but they tend to get ported quickly anyway.

In 1976, they created a really decent editor, and fifteen years later, they made it flawless. Its name is https://wordwipe.io
