This list complies with tools that I have found useful during my time as a software engineer working with React/JavaScript. If anyone would like to share any tools I didn't mention, commend down below and I will either add them to this list or make a new list in the future. This list will exclude some tools that are most often mentioned in top tools for developers articles(ESLint, Prettier, etc.). I will also mention tools that can be used for any web developer and are not just catered to one framework such as React, Vue, etc.

Beware that Kite does not work with Javascript if you use vim.
That is very weird as it is listed as one of the text editors that is available for Kite...I use VS Code, so it works perfectly fine for me, but might be something to raise a ticket to them about Vim
yeah, I just sent them an e-mail complaining.
It seems to be a great tool though.
It is one of the best ways we can use AI: to help us to be better.
Only the top of the iceberg on what AI can do for us developers!
Dude, Responsively is really great. Probably just saved my company several hundred dollars a month on upgrading our Gigafox sub for dev tools.
It is a new tool for me and so far I really like it. Glad to see it is being used professionally!

Is nice
Thank you for the suggestion! I will definitely check it out! Would you mind sharing how useful has it been for you?
this one is more of a prediction :)
as web moves towards decentralised web // critically important.. we need new tools to build and construct new apps in that space.
dev is a friend of mine and shared this with me. :)
Responsively. That is one I will definitely start using from today! Thanks!!!👽👽👽
