Today my JetBrains student license expires. Moving to VSC from WebStorm. Any suggestions?

    Get that licence renewed :) student licence is [at least used to be] renewable. Even after you finish studies - you get a 20% discount for a personal lic

    @netikras yep, it's renewable. I renewed mine last year, it just required me to go back in and type my uni email in the box and i was good to go

    I graduated almost six years ago but I still have my student license because I still have access to my .edu email address.

    I don't really use it, especially not professionally, but it still works for personal projects.

    Don't.

    Get some addons and you are ready to go, VSCode works pretty damn well with TypeScript :)

    Start an open source project, gain some traction with it and then get the license for free 😉

    @netikras thanks!
    I got it renewed and it works like a "charm"!

    Yeah, don't do it. Best advice I could give you.

    JetBrains is legitimately great software, despite some hiccups. VSC is a dumpster fire comparatively.

    Great decision to try VSC after WebStorm. I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the additions and extensions for VSC in advance in order to adapt it as much as possible to your needs. I also have a student's license. I even started skipping classes and started paying for essay writing, found https://ca.edubirdie.com/pay-for-es... for this. This is actually a great option for me. Stay tuned and actively participate in the VSC community - there are a lot of useful tips there. Good luck with the transition!
