Unfortunately I wasn't in the path of totality but I was pretty close.

5 down votes?? Yeah those must be the java devs.

Most java devs are on intellij with a very rare exception here and there.

VSCode is also fairly popular among Java developers.
There's also Eclipse Theia Blueprint which is basically a open source clone of VSCode.

Is it really? It’s been a couple of years since I used Java, but vs code sucked for it compared to IntelliJ. I used vscode for everything else but could never make a Java workflow stick.

It's sort of minimalistic / lightweight alternative for IntellJ. Red Hat is working on the extension(s) which have worked fine for me at least for the past few years and it gets updates regularly.

I use VSCode for C++, C#, Java, Python and for things like docker-files, html etc. IntelJ is fine but a bit bloated in comparison with its menus, sub-menus, sub-sub-menus and built in unnecessary extra features for those just looking for code editor.

VSCode workflow with Java is mainly using it to write code, run tests, configure maven/gradle/docker/etc rest is more or less using CLI and Command palette.

I love not having downvotes federated 😎

Y'all remember netbeans?

There's always a bigger worse fish.

I liked Netbeans much more than Eclipse. It didn't have that stupid workspace system at least.

Yeah, I’m all about Jetbrains in Night theme. Thanks for the alt text, by the way.
