I wrote a programming language. Nobody uses it. Therefore, it has no IDE support, and trying to use it in an IDE will be a frustrating waste of your time.

Someone else wrote a language. It powers 100 trillion dollars of business. Lots of people use it. Therefore, it will have ten IDEs all competing with each other to be the best, fastest, most popular, and least buggy.

In which environment are you going to use an IDE?
