Webstorm pairprogramming12/22/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Some days I’m just in a VS Code sort of mood, and it’s the only thing I use. VS Code feels a lot snappier and is quicker to start up. Most days, I’ve got a JetBrains IDE and VS Code open at the same time, and often on the same codebase. That’s not to take anything away from VS Code. I find that the JetBrains IDEs also have better debuggers and better profiling tools. So I’m very aware that my positive experience with these IDEs may be very specific to the way my brain is wired. The code indexing and intelligent code completion in the JetBrains IDEs just seems very in tune with my thinking and my workflow, and it’s very consistent across languages…whether I’m working in JS, Java, Python, C#, or TypeScript, the overall experience has the same smooth “feel” to it. So with a single keystroke, I’m able to autocomplete the line I’m typing, and the IDE will, if necessary, auto-add the import to the file I’m in so I don’t have to do that manually.Īt various times I’ve come close to this experience in VS Code – but it varies a lot based on the language. If I know a symbol (class, function, constant, whatever) is defined somewhere in my code, or in a library my project can see…I just start typing the name of the thing I want to use, even if I haven’t imported it into the file I’m working on.ĩ9 times out of 100, WebStorm (or P圜harm, or IntelliJ, or Rider, depending on what language I’m working in) knows what I intended to use well before I’m done typing it. Here’s what I think:īut I often like JetBrains’ IDEs even more, because when I’m really in the zone it feels like I’m pair programming with a psychic. Since is the internet and every else shares their opinion here, I figure I’ll do the same. ![]() There’s often some argument about which one is better. I often see developers comparing JetBrains WebStorm and Visual Studio Code. ![]()
