I had a friendly argument with a person over comparing visual studio with Xcode,the first thing that came into my mind when he said visual studio was visual studio code (keep in mind visual studio and visual studio code are completely different visual studio is an ide while visual studio code is a code editor )

I was arguing that there’s no point comparing an ide specifically made for iOS app dev with a code editor with intellisense with better code predictions as it would have made more sense if he was comparing a code editor with another code editor like atom or sublime.

This argument went on for a couple of mins in a group chat

Later on I found out he was talking about visual studio and not visual studio code which actually is an ide used for app dev.

This whole time I thought he was talking about vs code and he thought I was talking about visual studio 😂

I ended up agreeing it was my mistake for not getting the message in the first place 😂

@irene well.. what do you say if said vs code is armed with bunch of plugins/packages that allows you to build, test and debug your code. Is it still a text editor or is it closer to an IDE at that point?

I too think that vs code, sublime and such are editors by default but you can set them up in a way with plugins that makes them closer to an IDE, sometimes even better because only the features that you use will be installed. (sadly none of my workflows can be realised with plugins I found but there are some features that are better implemented by some third party plugin than the IDE I use)
