I mainly code Java with IntelliJ.
- it doesn't AFAIK have an integrated browser or if it does I have never encountered it
- I have not seen it crash a lot and certainly not for the stated reason
- if autocomplete isn't working, that is a sign something about the build process isn't set up right, so other things won't work either
- basic settings being buried deep in the menus is definitely a thing
- if it underlines something, that has always been an error, I think it calls a real Java compiler for this
- freezing at critical moments can occasionally be a thing

Nah, there is:
- A special hotkey that allows you to find and execute virtually any command. Same in vscode with ctrl+shift+p.
- Text-based search in the settings dialog.
So even though things are buried somewhere deep, it's easy to find them.

Sounds like a
skillhardware issue tbh. - it doesn't AFAIK have an integrated browser or if it does I have never encountered it

It has an integrated browser in Ultimate, not in Community.

I really never understood what benefits an IDE has over Notepad++, they take up SOOOO much drive space for me when all i want to do is make a mod to someone elses file..

wrote on last edited by [email protected]You get the most out of them when working on bigger projects with many files and multiple contributers:
- Version control integration
- Automatic profiling
- Debugger integration
- Refactoring
- Jump to Definition/Parent/Children/Usages of a Symbol
- ...
For changing a single file, I'd often just launch a simple editor too.

Meanwhile: vim and Emacs users, constantly installing and configuring plugins to emulate a fraction of the power of IDEs, go "just use vim/Emacs".

I swear to God if it is what I think it is, I'm going to jump into fucking traffic carrying as many baby ducks as I can.

Easymotion is the only plugin I need to be happy.

Hah, per window.

Which, ofc, is Microsoft's fault, since it's their analyzer that has had the bug for years now. Rider didn't have that problem, but it shits itself when you change branches. You can't win

No, it only has an integrated html previewer. They removed the full integrated browser because it was unnecessary and an actual browser did the trick

VSCode is the first development environment I’ve used that doesn’t make me feel like this. It’s not perfect but the base application is rock solid and the full DE experience is the more reliable than any other DE I’ve used.
P.S. I specifically said DE for those people who say VSCode isn’t an IDE. Personally I don’t see the point in differentiating.
P.P.S. Sublime is not a DE in my opinion. It’s an excellent text editor with syntax highlighting. The plugins were an afterthought and it was never intended to provide the full experience. Granted I haven’t used it in years.

If you all you need a text editor... great. But an IDE gives you tons of tools, such as debugging, breakpoints, memory inspection, intergated terminals, some may even include visual gui editors. Thats why they are called "Development environments".

debugging, breakpoints, memory inspection
glorified printf debugging
intergated terminal
real terminal

IIRC vi has been installed, or perhaps tinyvim, then I always go and install vim-gtk

The IDE is the worst part of being an iOS developer.
