Title: I would state up front that I&#x27;m a vim user and don&#x27;t have much experience with either emacs or vs code. But as a product, both of them appear to be quite similar:<p>1. Programmable<p>2. Configurable<p>3. Can be used for programming in a variety of languages and frameworks<p>4. Bloated(?)<p>Hell, there&#x27;s even an org mode plugin for vs code!<p>So, is it reasonable to view vs code (and atom?) as the successors of emacs, or as the emacs of modern day?<p>And if I&#x27;m thinking about jumping to something more feature rich than vim, should I jump to emacs or vs code(atom?)? I know that vim can be made feature rich with plugins, but you are lying to yourself if you say that vim can do anything an IDE can.
