Users can easily debug Node.js applications on the client side.

Developers can utilize smart completion of code, real-time error detection, JavaScript refactoring and navigation, language stylesheet, TypeScript, and leading frameworks.

The technology is lightweight yet comprehensive as it carries solutions for complex client-side development and server-side development with Node.js.Ĭreated by productivity software developer JetBrains, WebStorm leverages the powerful ecosystem of JavaScript. So use VSCode while you teach yourself vim.WebStorm is an integrated development environment (IDE) designed specifically for modern JavaScript. It is OK if you have to use an IDE (currently I only use an IDE for java development, so I have little choice) Managing files, buffers and workflow is half of the value of vim/neovim.
