Code Inspection & Refactoring VS Code - Quick, Easy, Multilanguage Support If you’re looking for a change of an editor, but are hesitant on even giving JetBrains a try (because, I mean VS Code is free and JetBrains for non-students isn’t) or if you’re just interested in the reasons as to why I committed such a betrayal, read on! This article is an honest comparison between VS Code and JetBrains and why the switch to JetBrains might be great for some. But wouldn’t you know it, I’m here now, writing this article about what finally convinced me to abandon the IDE that has been by my side since day one. And… I begrudgingly agreed, thinking it’d be a one and done thing (and so that the finally meeting could end). During one of our daily stand-up meetings, my co-worker, Emerson, was adamant about the JetBrains ecosystem and extended the meeting trying to convince one of us to give it a whirl. Now just a bit of background, I work at Blankly where we enable people to build trading algorithms on hedge-fund level cloud infrastructure in minutes instead of months. I would’ve even offered up my left kidney, fighting for the fact that VS Code was superior (just like M1 Pro Macs are) to any other IDE on the market. And sure, before I tried out the JetBrains ecosystem, I would’ve completely agreed. You’d think that after five years of coding in one IDE, I would be out of my mind to leave the VS Code.
