I mean, I like different IDE's for different things

The glorified text editors like Atom are nice but lack features I enjoy from jetbrains software or xcode

Powershell ISE, but mostly because it's pretty much the only coding/scripting that I do. 

 

VisualStudio Code is pretty nice for the dark themes and auto-formatting but the built in Powershell ISE is easier to use IMO.

Atom just does not work on my mac for some reason. None of my code will save!

Nano for quick config file edits, Kate for anything (relatively) complex. I don't do any serious coding so this combo is more than enough.

I use VisualStudio Code personally. It supports pretty much all the languages with plugins and overall it is great! Plus, it is great with HTML and Javascript in my experience

There is no "one tool fits all" for me. I like most Jetbrains tools. VS Code is great for Typescript, but is quite awful for Go when compared to Jetbrains' Goland. Webstorm on the other hand feels overkill for web development. Nano/vim for most text/config file stuff. I also use Notepad++ or Sublime here and there. For Android development, Android Studio is pretty much the only reasonable tool.

Since I haven't really worked with a domain language like C# or Java in a long time, I've been using VSCode, and more recently nvim (just vim basically). They're great for pretty much every language that does not rely on IDE automation too much (both of those can perform those functions too, but not out-of-the-box, needs some time to set up usually). Suits my needs well, because of the languages I use.

 

Otherwise, I've used Jetbrains tools in the past, and I've found them great. If I was to jump back into C# or Java, I'd probably use them. I wouldn't exactly want to, but those languages almost require using a full blown IDE IMO. Visual Studio itself used to be nice at least, have not used it in years, so I don't know how it's holding up.

Not to complain or anything but you're missing major players from the vote:

Also the IDE of choice depends a lot on what you're doing. I have at least 6 I have to use 4 on daily basis. So maybe a multi choice pool would be more appropriate.

I have added 8 more IDEs

I use Visual studio most of the time & like it cuz dark mode.
I do mostly C#, C++ when I write code.

Notepad ++ is decent for HTML, PHP.

 

I hate Python but use Pycharm for that.

If I could get Java working I'd use Arduino's IDE for C & Eclipse for Java.

 

 

Most IDE are basically the same. Some don't have compilers which kinda sucks imo. You have to like link it or something & I hate that.

Pimp out VSCode or sublime you can compile almost everything there,

add linter via extensions, here's where I don't use VSCode or Sublime:

I don't want to configure when I can just install Visual studio and develop.

4 minutes ago, zhnu said:

Xcode, Android Studio, Vim (inside docker containers), nano (inside regular instances), etc (only use if I have to I don't like remembering so many key bindings)

I mostly use C# & C++, so when I need an IDE that doesn't do those, as you do, I use a different application that's better for it.

Also I don't know if it counts but paper, paper is the best IDE but no linter.

That's psuedo code & UML & design documents.
I used to use paper, but now I use OneNote since it's free on the windows store & syncs with the cloud automatically.

CLI based -- config editing, quick minor changes, file viewing, etc: VIM

GUI based:

- viewing/editing text files: Sublime

- python scratch work: Jupyter Notebooks 

- coding: JetBrain's various IDEs (PyCharm, Clion, IntelliJ)

 

I spend most of my time in a JetBrains IDE :)

I use VS Code for pretty much everything.
 

  • Scripting GCC-Commands for cross compilation? Check.
  • SSH with direct file access to any Linux-Machine to directly develop on target? Check.
  • Comfortable Git-Plugin? Check.
  • LaTeX-Plugin with PDF-preview for writing docus? Check.
  • Jupyter-Notebooks for trying algorithms? Check.
  • Code-Completion, Syntax-Checking and Linting for C, C++ and Python? Check. 
  • Easy Docker-Implementation for annoying Nvidia-Tensorflow-Version-Chaos? Check.
  • Opening basic Image-Files (jpg or png) for quick verification on test-pictures even on SSH-Target? Check.
  • Extremely flexible with the included terminal, the ability to support even ZSH with PowerLine-Font? Check. 

Only when setting up a fresh development target, "vi", because VS Code doesn't like having sudo-permissions which is often needed to modify ip-configs and such.

I agree but depends how you see the question. If it's about what your are doing yes it change on the languages. If the question is about the best experience, and fluent workflow regardless of the language then the answer is different.

I was mainly asking which IDE is the best all-rounder and supports the most languages

Acme. (With GNU Emacs being a close contender - but a superior text editor, admittedly.)

Write in C.

For Python, my favourite IDE is Spyder. It's a perfect tool for any data science stuff, as you can immediately view, sort, and even edit dataframes, it is interactive, and it does not force you to waste time on creating a virtual environment if you just want to write one throwaway script consisting of 100 lines of code (which is what I absolutely hate PyCharm for).
