There is some that are faster and probably lighter and more efficient. But better, no. VSCode takes the cake. I use VSCodium.

You say that as if somebody was disputing that.

I’d consider vscode to still be a text editor, although I do really like using it for TypeScript. For me, VS still takes the crown because it’s just so good at debugging and evaluating C#. It’s hard for anyone to compete since Microsoft largely owns (yes, I know the .NET Foundation is responsible for .NET) the whole ecosystem.

I’m more partial to Zed now. I like to type in high FPS.

VS Code is a code editor, not an IDE.

The distinction ceased to be meaningful the minute language servers got introduced.

True. If I were to count text editors then vscode would probably be the winner. TypeScript support in vscode is just beautiful.

Vanilla vscode is not an IDE, true. But that’s a moot point as you can load that shit up with a bajillion extensions and turn it into what’s basically a proper IDE.
