VS Code is more effective. Jump around code just by clicking, get popups for documentation, ctrl-P instant find for files etc.

Not quite - Using grep, I can go into a deep sub directory and search within just those files, which I don't think you can do from the find-in-files feature in VSCode.
You can do this in VSCode with glob patterns to limit the search directory, e.g. "Find 'foobar' within './path/to/deep/directory/*/*.txt'"
