What Editor do I use?

What Editor do I use for my javaScript development?

I have used and tried a lot of editors and IDEs in the past for development and all have there positives and negatives. I now use a mix of VSCode editor and neovim for most of my development and all of my javaScript work. I have used VSCode for a few years but kept coming back to Neovim for quick edits, this led me to start using the vim plugin for VSCode which worked well mostly but annoyed me in a few places sometimes when a vim key command I was used to didn’t work. For years I have used vim and Neovim but only really when I wanted something really quick, like editing a system config file, or was in a limited environment like a server.

This is new

Once I started using the vim plugin in VSCode, my daily driver at the time, I started to get more comfortable with vim commands and extending my knowledge. Everyday I would end up learning a new command or two as my need arose. Little by little i became more and more comfortable with vim and liked it most every week. As I became more comfortable with vim commands in NeoVim and installed plugins to extend or customise it as I liked I also was getting more annoyed at VSCode in small ways.
