What is this thing you call “good gui”?
It's what you put on bad software to make it palatable.
Like a sugar coating. It's why no one codes in Java anymore without 80 terabytes of ram for their IDE.
I wonder what's this "good software" (you meant language?) that doesn't require an IDE to code efficiently.
Good luck ever doing anything embedded if you always need a clunky IDE. Best thing I ever did was get comfortable in a solely vim/cmake/gcc environment. Even if the majority of work doesn't require it, it'll teach you a lot.
I mean, we're rewriting everything in Rust, so there's no need to learn cmake anymore /s
To conter your comment a little bit, I think anyone doing coding for a living should absolutely use an editor that supports LSPs. They're an insanely helpful tool with zero downsides.
