Just use VS Code. Its Java support isn’t the best, but it’s good enough and the rest of the IDE makes up for it.

I feel like a lot of the love for IntelliJ is a sort of Stockholm Syndrome combined with relief at not using Eclipse.

But what about <some obscure feature that you use once in a blue moon and could’ve been achieved using some CLI faster than you could remember an IntelliJ shortcut for it>! It’s an IDE, not an editor!

What CLI can I use to extract an interface from a class?

open-code run "extract interface x from class y"

I’ve been using cursor mainly (so sorta vscode in a way). I just use IntelliJ for unit tests and the debugger mainly.
