Ionic 3 Angular 4: Visual Studio Code or WebStorm?


With latest update, I want to make application in Ionic 3 (i.e Angular 4). Before this I have used both IDEs as Angular development in code and made Ionic 2 (i.e Angular 2) app with WebStorm.

I am not able to decide what would be the right choice to get going with Ionic development and Cordova plugins support.

Visual Studio Code or WebStorm ?

Any Suggestions would be helpful!


Solution

  • Ionic and Angular both are running on top of Microsoft Typescript.Visual studio code is also from Microsoft.If you need to test the latest and greatest features of Typescript then you must go with the Microsoft Visual Studio code.That tool has a nightly build version too. If you have a hurry to test, not yet released typescript features then you can do that too with Visual studio code.My prime choice is Visual studio code. It is an awesome tool, especially for the front end developments.

    Visiual studio code is free and open source.
