At the end of the day, easy debugging is my #1 concern when choosing an editor. Intellisense a pretty close #2.

I just wish I didn't need a completely separate editor for each language. Right now I regularly use PyCharm, PHP Storm, Ruby Mine. I guess I also use ReSharper a lot, but that's slightly different :D

You actually don't need a separate editor for most of the languages (minus C++ with CLion). It's not entirely obvious, but if you use IntelliJ IDEA, there are plugins for the other languages that provide the equivalent functionality of PyCharm, Ruby Mine, etc: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/idea/plugin/631-python https://plugins.jetbrains.com/idea/plugin/1293-ruby https://plugins.jetbrains.com/idea/plugin/6610-php
