That's a little out of scope for vim. There's a lot of plugins for getting an IDE like experience, but the whole point of vim is text edition, not running other tools. I'm a primarily a web developer and my config is heavily geared towards that. It's a per user thing.
I totally agree.
IMO, each developer should build its own IDE.
I use tmux along with vim to build a kind of custom IDE. But nevertheless, there are a bunch of things that you can only do in the editor itself: refactoring, syntax highlighting, jump-to-definition, debugging. I found plugins for many of the features I need, but refactoring is poor. Or maybe I need time to understand how it works, and time is always running out !
There's languages (Statically typed ones : Java, Kotlin,...) and projects (big and legacy) I'll totally use an IDE for. But a lot of things can be done with just a text editor. Plugins I used not related to vim customizations itself are for linting, autocompletion, snippets, git and running various other tools... My basics for a pluging is fast editing. Any other tasks, I switch to a better tool.
