Want to try the best of both worlds?

Right now, you can experience ide-level autocompletion and type-checking in vim if you are working with typescript and have typescript-vim plugin.

Just do one decent sized software with typescript+vim. Even intellij ides seem like bloated and inefficient software after that.

PS: gvim is fine too. Easier copy to, and paste from clipboard.

Just to add to that: Vim has ide-level autocompletion and type-checking for many languages and not just typescript.
