Visual Studio Code Extensions vs Sublime Text Packages

Developers should learn to use and create VS Code Extensions to tailor their editor for specific programming languages, frameworks, or tasks, such as adding syntax highlighting for a new language or integrating with cloud platforms meets developers should learn and use sublime text packages to boost productivity by automating repetitive tasks, improving code readability with advanced syntax support, and integrating tools like linters, formatters, or git directly into the editor. Here's our take.

Visual Studio Code Extensions

Nice Pick

Developers should learn to use and create VS Code Extensions to tailor their editor for specific programming languages, frameworks, or tasks, such as adding syntax highlighting for a new language or integrating with cloud platforms

Pros

  • +This is particularly useful for teams standardizing tools, automating repetitive tasks, or extending VS Code's capabilities beyond its out-of-the-box features, making it a versatile tool for diverse development environments
  • +Related to: visual-studio-code, typescript

Cons

  • -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

Sublime Text Packages

Developers should learn and use Sublime Text Packages to boost productivity by automating repetitive tasks, improving code readability with advanced syntax support, and integrating tools like linters, formatters, or Git directly into the editor
