C0D4681457yCurrently vsCode insiders... once I disabled the baked in formatter, (it has some weird behaviours) and dropped a bunch of language plugins in it replaced Atom overnight for me.

chandakv947yThere are a lot of comments on VSCode vs Atom. Currently I am an Atom User. Will moving to VSCode really make my life better?

agaskins5897yGeany. It’s super lightweight as an IDE, but does have a few IDE features... I prefer to think of it as a well endowed editor, though. Or just nano for quick and simple edits.

I went from atom to vsCode and it has made a significant difference.
- Load up time is a lot better in vsCode
- Plugins and language support seems easier to find (atleast for the ones I use)
- Built in terminal docked at bottom of screen is a lot smoother to use then the atom plugin ones.
- Git integration is 100% better in vsCode and built in rather then needing external plugins
- syntax checking is done project wide rather then active file, this actually saved me from breaking a release when I changed over.
- oh and did I mention the load times?
As for atom, I think it has better theme options but I can forgive vsCode for that as it is making all the difference in the other areas. -
@AngryApe have they finally implemented context-sensitive code completion or does it still just dump all symbols it has found in the whole project into each popup list regardless of where it pops up?
