Hey Victor! At work we use VsCode (we also have IntelliJ), but I personally prefer Vim as my personal editor. Even at work, I use IntelliJ and VsCode's vim plugin because I can go near mouse-free.

As for my own personal setup - this is by no means comprehensive - but there are several must-have features that I need to make it my own personal IDE/editor. These are

  • neovim - "better" vim.
  • tmux - to manage multiple windows/ panes.
  • fzf - to quickly search file in project
  • Ag - to quickly search string in project
  • neotree - tree file explorer

You can check out my vim dotfiles here.
