I'm moving my React development to Linux VM as something is messed up in Windows npm...

I would like an IDE somewhat similar in features to Webstorm.

What's a good one? Needs to be GUI, not vim, don't feel like going thru the learning curve.

    @irene VSCode it is for now.... I just need something better than Notepad or whatever they call it in Linux

    Why would you not be willing to pay for something as critical to your workflow as your IDE? Also, why would you jump headfirst into Linux without an idea what you're going to do with it?

    @bahua because I usually use Windows as I said... the only reason I need Linux now is to see if it will build and run... I can't get the SQLite package to install and run on Windows 10.

    And it turns out Linux does not solve the issue... Probably the create-react-app is just fucked... somehow don't like any SQLite library...

    Vscode is nice but you will need a crapton of extensions to simulate webstorm

    @musician you know what they're called?

    @billgates depends on the features you are missing. Most important for me was the intellij keymap. Other good ones are auto tag renamer, auto bracket closer.

    If you miss a feature just check the extensions. Its most likely there

    @musician the one I like is when u Rena e a current or method and it changes all referenced everywhere

    @billgates I think thats built in. For me its shift + f6 with the intellij keybindings.

    @musician oh I don't think it was before but also that remember was online limited to the current file? It's not smart enough to find references in other files? At least the certain I use at work didn't, it can't verify the imports.

    @billgates it works for me with typescript. Not sure if it does with js

    @musician so many typos today. Yeah maybe TS... I remember before when in PyCharms they couldn't do it but somehow they figured something out now... To me it's just all magic..

    @rantalicious Webstorm

    Not very good if I just need to live edit some files though, rather have everything in on place rather then jumping around

    @rantalicious seems it a complicated install.. Giant read me, not sure. So was just wondering what limited people usually use
