How to configure vim like an IDE
Tis is good for the compilation to make it async( otherwise it blocks) https://github.com/tpope/vim-dispatch it wraps around the built in make/makeprg feature. Would recommend that you dont do it with large builds/outputs.

how to get this in regular vim
The other answer here covers everything you need, but if you want a plugin-based solution you might be interested in vim-dispatch which runs command line tools asynchronously, and offers the option to run the command in the background instead with :Dispatch!.

You should check :h compiler :h make and :h 'errorformat'. You could also check vim dispatch, a plugin that enhances this features

neovim with build system
Do note that :make is blocking, and you need to wait until it finishes before it sends you back to the editor. If you want it to be asynchronouns, you can install vim-dispatch + vim-dispatch-neovim for Neovim support in vim-dispatch.

Dear vimmers, when do you prefer using vims built-in terminal over a new tmux panel/window?
For long-running programs, like compiling, or running full test suites, or running terraform on a decently sized infrastructure project, I may run them with :Make (courtesy of tpope/vim-dispatch) so I can keep working on the project while the external program is running. If I'm in an environment without vim plugins, I may spawn a new tmux pane/window. As a last resort, I will ctrl-z/fg if I don't have tmux on the remote system (e.g. dev containers).

There's also https://github.com/preservim/vimux, which works very well IMHO.

Is there a way to store a command line to fast use in Neovim?
Not sure if you want another plugin but vimux lets you run a command in a tmux split again and again. I find it super useful

Get output from your bash script directly in Vim, with colors too.
I've written something similar trying to mimic Vimux/vim-slime in my quest to learn vimscript and ditch plugins; because It's nice to have a terminal split like tmux.
-
is there a plugin to run any file (.py .js .java etc.) and display the output?
So I use tmux and use the vimux plugin to create panes for the code to run (similar to vscode).

Might want to checkout https://github.com/preservim/vimux also, but if these commands meet your needs, don’t worry about it and enjoy

Populate quickfix from a tmux pane
