In a sample of 1, 100% of me's use IDEs for every coding related thing I do. At $work I'm a firmware engineer and regularly use three variants of Eclipse provided by the manufacturers of the three main processors I work with. I use Visual Studio for C++ development on our flagship application, and I use Visual Code for a few miscellaneous processors and Arduino development. In choosing a processor for a project lack of a competent IDE and debug probe for a specific device is automatic disqualification.

For Perl and Python development I use Komodo or, sometimes, Visual Code for Python (especially on Pi). I've also used Visual Code for Java development.

In fact of the 30 or so developers at $work, 100% use IDEs. I live in the hope that FOMO will drive more of the IDE nay sayers to give an appropriate IDE a go, but I guess demographics is the thing that will do the job in the end.

Optimising for fewest key strokes only makes sense transmitting to Pluto or beyond
