    Whichever Jetbrains IDE is appropriate. I fell in love with Rider and wound up paying for their all-inclusive license. I’ve since made heavy use of Webstorm, CLion, and Datagrip professionally and personally.

      Yeah VSCode is the GOAT. I reached a point where I basically only ever use any other IDE if I’m explicitly told to, or if I don’t have a desktop environment to work with. Or if I have to work with Java, because sadly I found the Java support on VSCode to be rather lacking.

    NeoVim. Endlessly customizable, quick to start, and can offer whatever niche feature you’d like. Did I say it was endlessly customizable?

      Same here. I’ve used vim/neovim for decades now.

      I hated configuring it then (in vimscript). I hate configuring it now (in lua).

      When I first tried Vim, I was frustrated with the amount of work needed to build an environment that’s on par with the IDE features I use in IntelliJ. Neovim is easier to customize, and Lua > Vimscript.

      That said I still gave up and mostly stick to IntelliJ/VSCode. I do use Vim bindings in both editors because it helps me code faster. Neovim can be embedded into other applications so in a way I’m still a Neovim user.

    When I first started programming a few years ago, I used Python’s default IDLE. After a few months of that I switched to Atom (RIP), and shortly after moved to VS Code. I’ve stuck with VS Code since.

      I missed Atom a lot when it was discontinued. Recently found Pulsar which is a community continuation of Atom, and it seems to be quite active.

        Yay, Im happy there is at least one pulsar mention! We are thinking of setting up a Lemmy community but want to make sure there is enough interest.

          If you setup a community for pulsar, you have a guaranteed subscriber in me. And if you’re one of the devs I can’t thank you enough for your work.

            Dev is probably a strong word for me but I’m definitely on the Pulsar team lol. I mainly do the website stuff and blog/release posts/announcements. Good to hear we have a supporter for it here :)

    JetBrains IDE all the way. Mostly Intellij Idea, WebStorm, CLion (for Rust) and PhpStorm. Once in a while Visual Studio Code for a quick text file edit.

    I have a JetBrains All Product Pack license, so they are always my first choice. I tried VSCode and vim, but they require so much work to get to a useable state whereas a true IDE can be used right away. I want to code and not turn fiddling with my editor into a hobby. I do use VSCode and vim, but only for editing text. And I use vim key bindings everywhere.

      +1 for jetbrains, vscode feels basic compared to it

        I want to like vscode, and the vim bindings make me feel at home. I just don’t like it though, I find it so slow for a text editor, and the intellisense seems to be very hit and miss as to whether it’s going to work.

        Every few months I open up vscode and give it a try, then go back to vim.
