VS Code is OK if you can't afford the JetBrains ultimate subscription. I never want to see a VS Code launch configuration again.
Fuck subscriptions though.
Agreed...the community editions of their tools are solid, but if you're doing cloud stuff, get your company to pay for it. It blows VS Code out of the water.
Ehh, it's ok in the case of JetBrains - if your subscription lapses your license converts to a 'perpetual fallback license' so can just continue using the version you installed when the subscription was originally purchased.
I'm using a 4 year old version of PhpStorm with no issues and no subscription. My PyCharm sub ended 6 months ago and I'm staying on the 2023 version of PyCharm because the latest version comes with lots of AI which makes my CPU fans scream continuously.
WebStorm and Rider will have community versions soon, they are going to eat VS Code's lunch.
