What is your most used IDE? Is it also your Favorite?

dougw

Do you use the same IDE for every MCU or do you use different IDEs for different manufacturers?

This poll is about which one you use the most, but feel free to comment below if your favorite is not the one you use the most.

How long have you been using it?

Which popular IDEs are missing from this list?

  • VSCode is really nice, but it's getting too overcomplicated and bloated. It desperately needs some sort of profile system, as I regularly find myself having to enable and disable plugins to get things to work and not conflict. It's getting incredibly slow at times too.

    Zed is looking promising for simpler things, but it's still missing very basic features after more than a year, which is a big disappointment. At this rate, not sure if it will ever reach a usable state for me.

    Hmmm, Zed does look promising but I see you have to pay for the pro version. At $10 per month I wonder if it's really worth it - you get $5 worth of tokens.

    Zed itself is open source, the pro version is just some AI usage thing. Works the same way with all other editors, including VSCode. I'm more disappointed in the lack of basic features and their complete ignorance about the issue. 90% of the missing things would be probably a single day to implement for someone working at Zed.
