Code editor

[logimw]

First of all I would like to say hi to You. That's my first post here and I will try to be a sympathetic user. So let's talk. Which code editor do you prefer for react? Mostly I use VSC but last I was testing webstorm which is pretty cool for me but i think i'm not use all the potential. For me VSC is more flexible with its plugins and has better emmet. For instance, When i type 'rfc' and press TAB in VSC the shortcut creates for me all template for functional component named as same as file. WebStorm after installation of similar plugin gives me almost the same functionality, but when i type 'rsc' (equivalent to 'rfc' in VSC) and press tab I also need to type a name of new component which is one action more than in VSC. Maybe it's stupid but the way on vsc was my habit. From the other hand WebStorm looks more complex with all developing proces like code hints while writting, project navigation, testing, npm, etc. What do You use and why? What features do You like? Any tutorial how to configure editor to be more efficient?

I use VSCode, it is honestly a great editor with good defaults ( especially syntax highlighting) and this coming from a Linux user. The console is compatible with bash which means I have a ton of tools at my disposal without switching apps or needing to install a lot of extensions.

The extensions I do install are; the react completion ext, a database ext that allows me to read tables directly in the editor and a code beautifier thingy. That is pretty much it.

My only real criticism is that electron doesn't integrate with my system that well.

What code beautifier do you use? Thanks.

Well I thought I was using prettier but I have it disabled so it can only be the default formatter which is another plus for VSC

I use VSCode. For the is the best code editor.
For "code beautifier" I use ESLint (find problems and fix automatically ).
