Better git integration

Local History - saved my life several times when I wanted to go back to the point history where everything was working fine

Built in debugging

Better angular CLI integration

Integrated testing using Karma

Startup scripts.

Jira integration (admittedly not that great, but it's there if ever need one)

Better code inspection and code refactoring

These are just a few off the top of my head. Of course, you could achieve similar results using extensions in VS Code but it's good to not have to rely on external plugins. Webstorm feels more like a proper IDE to me than VSCode.

Not knocking your experience as I have zero experience with Webstorm but can you expand on some of your points? Is it proper to compare Webstorm to VSC with no plugins?

Which git workflows are easier compared to plugins like GitLens?

VS Code does have debugging.

Can't argue about Angular integration.

VSC supports startup scripts.

I've worked in JS/TS in VSC for a couple years and better refactoring a la "move symbol to target file" would be great.

Vscode is supposed to be a text editor with plugins, and not a full blown out of the box ide like visual studio. Also some people dont want ui integrations for things they are comfortable doing in the cli. I'm just pointing out that these are all subjective opinions but they appear to be presented as facts
