I used to think VS Code was going to be a threat to JetBrains IDEs considering how fast its iterative development was (thanks in large part to the productivity of JS + Web renderer) but its never seems to quite be able to reach the feature-set, polish & intelligence of JetBrains IDEs.
Every IDE function appears to be better implemented in JetBrains, whether it's Code Analysis, Refactoring, Navigation, Running/Debugging, Running Tests, adding new files, git integration or contextual functionality like adding package references etc. Everything is just better in JetBrains.
I see VS Code as an ubiquitous smart editor platform with zillions of plugins that's half way between a glorified text editor and an IDE which I use a lot for quick dev changes, quickly searching a folder, front-end UI development, trying out new languages or writing docs. But if I have to start a long dev session I turn to JetBrains which I find far more productive.
