How is dev ex with Reason? Intellisense?

It's ok. There's pretty good support for linting and code completion. The plugins are fast and have a rich feature set.

Take a look at this: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jaredly....

The only problem that I have found is that in some situations it doesn't report errors correctly when adding new dependencies. Refreshing the window or rebuilding the project usually helps.

On the other hand, the compiler feels very solid. It can be annoying in the beginning because of how disciplined the code needs to be, and the error messages can be hard to understand.

After getting used to that, the dev ex is really smooth specially during complicated refactoring, the compiler and the IDE make things almost boring.
