You could use grep with vim or nano for quick searches and viewing without even leaving your terminal. Why bother with a GUI at all for that use case?

This idea assumes that one I am familiar with grep and vim or nano and two that I was using my terminal already. Which can be true or wrong. But, the discussion is not about whats the best way for searching for text in a file set. I am just talking about whats the use case in which I prefer VSCode over IntelliJ.
