I don't do a whole lot of software (got caught up on the hardware side of things), but one thing I'm noticing is that nobody makes extensive use of "advanced" IDE features as in eclipse or visual Studio.

Is this personal taste, or has it to do with the scope of the projects these guys are working on?

For me, IDEs are great for when I have to do boilerplate coding. But when I switch to real business logic I use an editor like vi or sublime. Anything more impedes my thinking and gets in my way.

I'm guessing you're probably not writing unit test or use code coverage plugins or running static code analysis to provide feedback incrementally and quickly?

>>edwinn+37
What has any of those things to do with someone's choice of editor?

>>aarone+a9
I take it you've never used those IDE with the plugins to support the workflow I mentioned above...

>>edwinn+wd
I take it you have never used vim or sublime with plugins that can do the same thing.

BTW, I've used both. No need for a snarky response to me as well

I'm using sublime. I'm in the market for great sublime plugins and it would be great if you could let me know what plugins you use :).

My workflow goes like this:

1. Write new code

2. Write unit-test

3. Run _just that_ unit-test w/ code-coverage from within my IDE without compilation (e.g.: no mvn clean install)

4. Get feedbacks (unit-test results, code-coverage results)

I take it linting/checkstyle/style-formatter is a given in sublime (I use jshint so I guess I know the answer to that ;)).
