Sublime text was fine as a plain text editor, but it was never a good IDE, in my experience. Things like VSCode’s git integration, jump-to-definition in a ton of languages, good hover-over definition support, automatic refactoring and automatic imports are things that have a big impact on my productivity, and don’t seem to be Sublime’s strenghts.
VSCode has generally better code hints, though recently Sublime improved in that respect. However, VSCode also has a bad habit of getting REALLY slow when working with extremely large files, because it tries to parse them all, I guess.
Why would I used it over Sublime Text? You said you have some experience with ST, so I would like to know why VsCode wins.
