  • evil

    The extensible vi layer for Emacs.

  • I learned about emacs when I took CMSC216 a number of years ago, and I still use it to this day in the industry for everything I do: programming, git, calendar management, ssh, etc. Emacs is an incredibly powerful tool, but you sort of have to buy into its philosophy to leverage that power. e.g. instead of having emacs in one window and your terminal in other and alt-tab between them, you open up a terminal buffer within emacs using M-x shell. Instead of running git via terminal, you use the magit emacs extension. Instead of ssh'ing into a machine and running emacs / vim /whatever remotely, you open a file from your local emacs instance over ssh via M-x find-file /ssh:user@host:/path/to/file (TRAMP mode). Instead of running vim you use evil-mode within emacs. And so on...

  • lsp-mode

    Emacs client/library for the Language Server Protocol

  • Also, keep in mind that emacs supports all the modern features you'd expect to see in vscode, they just have to be installed / enabled / configured (e.g. intellisense via lsp-mode). You could also use a distribution of emacs like Doom which comes pre-configured with all these features.
