The Era of Visual Studio Code

I haven’t used IntelliJ, but if it gives Java developers half of the refactoring options and shortcuts that JetBrains Resharper gives C# developers, it must be worth its weight in gold.

C# is the only language for which I have had to deal with large monolithic codebases.

For smaller codebases, I prefer VS Code. Especially now that I go back and forth between JS, Typescript, Python, and occasionally Go and Java. I’m also frequently editing yaml and JSON. Having one editor is more ideal.

The one editor thing is key. I’m in and out of different languages and file formats. Many times, I just need to edit text. Today, I was navigating perl in Goland just because I don’t want to dance between editors.

On top of that, there are extensions for everything - including CloudFormation linters.
