I can’t live without vim-like keybindings, but I also like the convenience of a proper GUI for debugging and using graphical extensions.
My solution: VSCode with the VSCode-Neovim extension, which uses a real instance of neovim to edit files.
neovim but prefer to debug in vscode
Visual Studio, and I'll use Community if I haven't got access to Pro.
It's seems I am the only one using spacemacs/doomemacs.
Also kdevelop for C++
Helix
For anyone who doesn't know; Helix is an editor with vim like keybindings with more out of the box functionality than vim.
I am using it too and like it.
The only problem I ran into is that the search and replace function (across.multiple files isn't very good).
helix is incredible, completely replaced neovim for me. Granted I never used many plugins outside of language servers, so it was fairly easy to not worry about a lack of features.
IntelliJ (with IdeaVim) for Kotlin and Java programming; Rider (with IdeaVim) for C#; NeoVim for everything else.
It depends, as so many things.
VSCode is really solid, and with the right extensions I think it's probably my all-round favourite. However, I do a lot of JVM-based programming, and there's really no acceptable answer apart from the IntelliJ-family there.
Whatever the IDE, good Vim-emulation is table stakes.
I used IntelliJ for a long time, but lately I find VSCodium does everything I need and it's generally pretty snappy.
Eclipse for PHP. Yeah, I do PHP 🤷🏻♂️
PHP gave my father cancer. Also, it's structure infuriates me so I've never forgiven it
I’m sorry to hear that about your father! If it’s not too much trouble, can you please explain how it happened?
