Im considering spending some serious time learning one of the above. Two principle engineers I work with exclusively use them, and watching them work is incredible, the speed they move and get things done is pure wizadry. Can anyone learn this skill? For what it’s worth, the alternative is learning VScode. I’ve exclusive used Android Studio in my career.
I think it’s good to learn a little vim. I tried getting emacs but it didn’t stick. Two good use cases for vim are if you are sshing into a machine or if you’re working with log files. It seems like too much work to set it up for programming, but I know there are those that do. As for emacs if you have any interest in “living in text files” then check out org-mode. If you’re in a windowed environment then it’s often easier to just use the mouse.
