throwawayish, (edited ) to linux in Looking for input regarding finding an IDE (spoilers: involves Emacs and Vim)

Seriously, if you want an IDE for Python and C#, VS Code with the Microsoft plugins is and will be miles ahead of the VIM experience.

Someone else already pointed how VS Code has become the most popular IDE (at least according to statistics found on stackoverflow). While categorically I’d like to dismiss VS Code for not adhering to F(L)OSS, VSCodium -however- actually does fit the bill. And while formerly I’ve had bad experiences on it related to how the plugin ecosystem is configured by default compared to VS Code, I’ve since learned how it works on VSCodium. So I shall set it up in case Emacs and/or (Neo)Vim somehow seem to be less fit for the job and/or I can’t be bothered at that moment to configure Emacs/(Neo)Vim to do my bidding.

Learn vi

Will do.

The time trying to force VIM/EMACS into a descent IDE will never come back and the theory sounds better than it will be in reality.

I understand the concerns. And I agree that I should be realistic in how I approach this. Nonetheless, I’m faithful for it to be a very productive endeavor. Thank you for chiming in!

“cross-platform” but it’s not available for the most popular developer OS (Windows) 🤔
