My code editing style definitely has changed since the 90s when one-file-at-a-time without Intellisense was the norm. Jumping to compile errors was about the only automated thing.
Now I just expect my IDEs, be it VS, VSCode, Eclipse to do a lot of heavy lifting for me.
I wonder, though, whether I was more disciplined and kept a lot more context in my head back in those days. I'm also a lot older so I really don't want to go back to the old days.
Now java developers can't possibly write an hello world in less than 60 classes and interfaces. Without an ide to keep track of the com.path.that.i.made.up.for.my.package.because.it.has.to.be.at.least.three.pages.long they'd never be able to code like that.
