If you install enough vim plugins you can get pretty close to VS Code in terms of both features and performance.

I wouldn't call VS code an IDE either, personally

Well, UNIX is the IDE ("The UNIX Programming Environment") and vi/vim is just the editor component of that. This is only half serious but I'm not fully joking either. The combination of tools and the ability to make pipes and custom scripts does, over a while result in a decent "development environment".
