Why the assumption that a separate editor needs to be released? IntelliJ with language plugins is better.



I agree. Intellij ultimate is the best polyglot work environment I've ever used. The primary project I work on has Java, kotlin, groovy, python, typescript, js, shell scripts, dockerfiles, various configuration files, etc. Intellij Ultimate handles them all equally well as the more specific language flavors in my experience.


Hadn’t been my experience thus far.
