I feel like this has more to do with what field you work in and what language/paradigm you use. Especially if you're working within some bullshit walled garden, you may not have a choice. I'm a terminal jockey myself, but I mostly program in C, so my code is procedural and to the point. Maybe I might want some fancy smart refactoring feature if I worked in a language where half the code is boilerplate or glue.
If I have the choice though, I don't see any advantage to an IDE. It's like the combination of many tools rolled into a single, bloated UI with about 60% of their original functionality. And I guess it lets you build "projects" and choose which files will be built. That part never made sense to me. I don't need a program for that! Just delete it dog. It's in the repo!
IDE:
- Text editor
- Source control
- Debugger
- Compiler
- Terminal
- File explorer
I'm my opinion, these programs are just better as separate programs.
(Rant) One thing that grinds my gears... Some IDEs will leave you with the dumbest possible directory structure imaginable. Like actively hostile toward us terminal jockeys. Remember, we are repeatedly typing these things out like cavemen. For example, c/c++ developers who put their headers in a separate, but identical directory structure. Oh and let's do full taxonomy and go 10 directories deep. And what the hell, capitalize random letters and throw in some with spaces into the directory names for good measure. These things don't have to matter to IDE people, but it is something to be mindful of.
