Can VSCode editing be as fast as Emacs/Vim?

Yeah, it's so much easier to create / edit beyond shortcuts. That being said, it does take more effort to get things like intellisense working

You should start with vim, but graduate to something much closer to an IDE

Do you have examples? Of things that are faster in vim?

Generally all movement and bulk edits.

One thing I learned recently is !! and how to use it to inject any program output at the current line. You can also use the current selection as input to that command. Write some code in vim, run !!bash or !! python and the output is replaced the code. Really helpful for doc writing and showing output
