Yeah, the TypeScript support in particular is what interests me the most (especially because I also want to get into AssemblyScript (TypeScript for WebAssembly)), but at the time I was comparing Atom and VSCode, the Vim support in Atom far outweighed the better TS support in VS Code for me. I will definitely have to swing back around to see how they compare nowadays. I'm hoping vim support in VS Code is as configurable and flexible in Atom (in Atom I can script the vim-mode-plus plugin with practically all the same features as native Vim, it's the first vim-emulation of any editor that I ever actually liked compared to native Vim).
