Hey everyone!

I was just wondering why one would use any of the programs I mentioned above instead of VS Code to write Code.

Can someone give me a brief overview of the advantages?

Thanks in advance!

Editing in Vim is so much faster. If you know emacs I'm sure it's similar. Mice are good. Keyboards are good. Constantly switching between the two is terrible.
