@entwine I’m denouncing the principle. The software, at that point, I will see when I will renew, in _amost a full year_ (I just did renewed few days ago…)
I’m was using eclipse before I switched to PhpStorm, more than 10 years ago. At that time, Eclipse auto-complete for PHP was in my projects totally irevelant.
I will see. Maybe @jetbrains will fix it’s mistake. Otherwise, I will see. Maybe eclipse got better since. Or maybe [neo]vim? I will see, later.
Eclipse Theia isn't classic Eclipse. It's basically a remake (not a fork) of VS Code, designed to be backwards compatible with VSC extensions. They even have their own plugin registry at https://open-vsx.org/ to avoid Microsoft's lock-in strategy that plagues forks like VSCodium.
The only Jetbrains product I've used is CLion, and I didn't like it because of how bloated it was. My PC fans would kick in every time I launched it, and none of the refactoring/auto-complete features were good enough to convince me to switch from Sublime Text + LSP plugin. At the same time, my work has forced me to become a build systems expert, so I have no problems having to set up everything myself. Project templates in Jetbrains IDEs may be a hard requirement for some, which I totally understand.
