nicholai8937yJust wait till you try Atom then! And it's magnificent package collection.
(Atom is literally gud&open source Sublime. Command palette, fuzzy finder, etc. Also recommended packages: minimap, pigments, minimap-pigments, docblockr, ternjs, atom-beautify) -
nicholai8937y@Skayo hm. I did find Atom slow on my slow pc, comparing it to Sublime, but on my better pc I feel no difference, and on neither of them theres anything noticeable in regards to VS. Theyre both Electron apps so them chrome instances eats things

RichiSK1527y@nicholai I'm using Atom for a long time now and I love it, but omg thanks for the recommended packages. I didn't know about some and I really missed them in my atomic life :D
-
nicholai8937y@RichiSK glad to help! Check out file-icons and todo-show as well. Find them useful.

I started using it and loving it, until I found out html/css intellesense doesn't work while in a php file.

Sooby17yI'm in your boat as well. Always used sublime (atom is overrated) but I'm working on an angular project so I decided to give VS a go. I'm loving it so far.

Kalvin12387yI found VSCode lacking a few things that Sublime had, like adding multiple folders to the sidebar or some of the autocompleting.
After a couple of weeks I went back to Sublime. -
@nicholai I haven't really been using Atom (it was nearly unusably slow on my potato laptop when I tried it out a few years ago), but judging purely by names of those plugins VSCode has most of them out of the box. That's why I liked it - it's much better by default than, say, Sublime, you don't have to keep tinkering with it for literally years to make it work for you. Plugins are much easier to install and manage too.

RTRMS37927yI just moved from atom to VS Code as Atom on my machine has decides for no reason what so ever that it is going to lag like a beast, and boy am I glad it did, while Atom is the true replacement for Sublime, there are just some core features of VSCode that make it ohh soo much better, and with barely a handful of pluggins I get all the extras that I had atom doing.

teaMo1387yThumbs up for using VS Code !! I love it.
I can definitely recommend to use this font in combination. Its awesome to have real equal and not equal signs.
