Now I'm wondering who uses what development tools. I mostly use Qt Creator myself - I chose it because of its good integration with C++ and Qt projects, and I'm just used to it. On Linux I use Qt Creator, and on Windows I use Visual Studio.
I wonder what others use? VSCode, Vim, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDE, Emacs, Sublime or something more rare?- Why did you decide to use them specifically?
- What do you like or annoy you about it?
- How usable is it in real work?

TextPad because a full IDE is distracting for me and all the extra features that come with an IDE are things I wouldn't use or have simpler ways of doing myself.

mcedit, because I'm not nerdy enough for vim.

For full stack I run Visual Studio Enterprise for the dotnet backend at the same time as VScode for the Angular frontend. Takes a lot of RAM but it's great for debugging.

Also, that is the world of b2 SaaS.

When possible JetBrains IDEs.
The downside of this: other (has not tested that much to be honest) IDEs can feel like better text editors or outdated IDEs...Why:
They feel like every important aspect of development is thought through and covered in a good to very good manner or there is an addon for the missing aspect. The stable version almost never has any problems...I think thats it.

gedit, nice and minimalist without any of the flashy features that overcomplicate things

Helix, it’s like vim but with sane defaults.

neovim, because it's much nicer and user friendly than vim.

Praise the Helix!

nanobecause I can't be bothered to learn thevishortcuts beyondi,/and:wq.And when I still worked on bigger stuff NetBeans. I got used to it and there were some features JetBrains lacked that kept me away. Can't remember which.

I use nano and geany at home. Both simple to use.
At work it's jetbrains because that's my only option besides notepad++

VScode locally, vim if I'm shelled into something
Used to use sublimetext, but roughly a decade ago VSCode ended up getting a lot of inertia, and that resulted in better plugins (at the time anyway)
I've used the jetbrains stuff and I do not get the hype whatsoever, it's bloaty and cumbersome.
One of the main reasons I switched from vim as my main was ping-pong pair programming. I'm not gonna be the arsehole that tries to force a junior dev to figure out vim instead of actually working on the ticket. Still 100% my go-to in text mode though, it's basically perfect.

Micro or Kate. My needs are simple. Occasionally if I need something more capable, I'll use VScode

I decided to use it because it was written in Rust which seems a bit weird but I always found Rust-based softwares to be awesome. Also, it's FOSS, extension-based and most important, it's not VSCode.
Pros: its speed, stability, memory usage (~200M, which seems a lot for a texte editor, but then again I come from VSCode) fast development cycles (a whole Git interface was added recently), extensions for nearly every language, refactoring capabilities, opt-in AI agent (can be a self-hosted LLM).
Cons: not a fully-featured IDE like IntelliJ, Git client is missing features, some frameworks are not supported by extensions
I tried to use it for several projects -->
- Works well: Rust, Go, VanillaJS, SolidJS (since it's using JSX/TSX, React should work too), Vue
- I prefer another IDE: Angular, anything JVM related (Java, Kotlin), anything Android-related

emacshas been with me since the 16-bit era, across paradigms, across generations, across careers. When I useemacsI think in terms of what the elisp is doing. It's such a deep and developed relationship, I would be throwing away so much personal power to use anything else. -

I use Zed
Yeah the agentic ai feature is nice and all but I don’t use it much.
However the whole speed of it and the layout of the ui is very close to my heart eg.: native remote server connection or you can hide stuff away to be distraction free.
Tldr.: feels nice, looks nice -

Visual Studio Code, I think it's just the best, works on all platforms and there's extensions for literally everything. If it enshittifies too much with e.g. copilot, etc. there's always vscodium instead.
If I'm on a linux terminal, I use the micro editor. I can survive using vim if nothing else is available, but yeah, I used to be in emacs team back in the day...
I have used Qt Creator in the past and, while it was pretty good back then, nowadays I'm not sure if it can compete with vscode, I haven't kept up with its development.

Let me see if I can slip these into your brain:

I'm afraid to say that I too have been corrupted by VSCode.
It's widely used, easy to get into, has LOTS of extensions, and works mostly the same across OS'es meaning it's easy to setup by and explain to others.
The two extensions I'm missing most in other IDE/text editors would be the "Remote - SSH" extension by Microsoft, which gives unparalleled integration when working remote, and PlatformIO which, while it can be used independently in its core form, just works way better in VSCode.
Besides this, I'll use Nano for small tasks and vi on embedded devices where Nano is unavailable, though, I'll need a vi cheatsheet for anything more advanced than basic editing.
