Exactly. Talk about something as simple as code folding. VsCode does the best job of it I know, and yet the other day it simply stopped working properly for pure JS code, not sure if that's because Microsoft prefers we use Typescript instead of JS. Nothing I did fixed it, and something as simple as that messes us with your workflow. And then I remember that VSCode has introduced a recent bug where after you collapse a piece of code, the file jumps to a weird location. And other paper cuts too numerous to mention, which seems to appear and go randomly So I tried Sublime text again, only to find that "Collaspe All" does not work properly by design, whatever the reason for that. And it still insists on making many things un-ergonomic. So I try Webstorm again, and after a few tweaks, it seems to do pretty much what I want. But, it is dog slow, and the display of collapsed comments is a bit weird. I start thinking of writing my own code editor... My point is pretty much this: The various advanced code editors spend so much effort on advanced features, but they forget that the basic must work flawlessly for most devs to have a good experience. I wish they focused on the basics again to make common sue cases frictionless. |
