The author clearly should have gone into the specific use-cases he was talking about. An IDE _is_ nothing more than a text editor with advanced features. There's a huge continuum from a basic text-editor like notepad to a full fledged IDE. I'd particularly like to see a use-case laid out where something like VSCode + Extensions wasn't actually enough. I've been using IntelliJ nearly every day for the past 4 years and I still don't understand how it is any different from a text editor + extensions. IntelliJ is even architected similarly with so many different "plugins" adding full fledged language support for other langages. Goland, Pycharm, etc, are basically extensions for the intellij text editor. |
