Neovim with Nvchad is what finally made me ditch pretty much all other IDEs. As much as I used to like Jetbrains, they’ve pivoted to vibe coding so hard that I can’t justify using their IDEs.
I like neovim for personal projects in Rust, Lua and JS but for collaborative work in Java it’s not really usable for me. Database access, merging big PRs, unit testing tools, debugging, integrations with Spring… I always saw too many feature gaps to even try.
