When starting out, prefer not to use full-blown IDE, because a lot of the things would be done for you. This will defeat the purpose of learning. When you have some command over the topic/language, you would see some repetitive patterns, which you would want to be pre-filled. And that's when you would appreciate the power that IDE provides. The IDEs provide a lot more than autocomplete (IntelliSense), such as project overview, refactoring and editing, running and deploying among other things.
I prefer using Visual Studio, but more like a scratchpad, which CodeRunner plugin. You can find out how to set it up using gist.github.com/SuperBonsaii/6ad89...
Thanks for the advice! Using too powerful IDE (think Intellij suite or Visual Studio) could be counter productive indeed as they provide much more than the language itself.
