WebStorm has proven to be a highly valuable tool for developers across various scenarios. Its ability to enhance productivity and seamless integration with different development environments make it a top choice among programmers. Many users have praised the comprehensive set of pre-configured features and abilities, significantly reducing the need for additional plugins or configurations. The wide adoption of WebStorm in computer science classes speaks to its accessibility and usefulness for projects of varying complexity, making it a preferred IDE even after graduation.
One of the standout use cases of WebStorm is its effectiveness in developing single-page applications, Angular projects, and NodeJS projects. Its support for all major frameworks, source control systems, package managers, testing tools, and a wide range of plugins makes it an incredibly versatile tool for development purposes. It serves not just as an editor but also as a debugger, version control tool, and more, acting as the primary IDE for entire organizations working on different projects.
Additionally, WebStorm is highly valued by front-end developers who require enterprise features like quick code generation, debugging capabilities, and easy integration with version control systems such as Git. The IDE's customization options that cater to individual developer preferences further contribute to its appeal. Teams have found great value in using WebStorm to increase speed, efficiency, and reduce bugs in JavaScript-based applications. Collaborative work is made easier with WebStorm's centralized tool that provides consistent features and facilitates problem-solving and code viewing.
Furthermore, WebStorm's flexibility extends beyond web development as it can be used alongside other IDEs like Eclipse and PyCharm/Spyder for Java, Python, and front-end development. It has become a go-to choice for healthcare-related applications due to its reliability and efficiency in providing a conducive development environment. Overall, WebStorm has entrenched itself as the standard IDE for web application development with support for various languages, frameworks like React, Vue, Angular, as well as other essential web technologies.
Based on the user reviews, the most common recommendations for WebStorm are to try it out, especially if you have an edu email address and can access the free version. They also suggest purchasing a full IntelliJ license for access to other JetBrains products. Additionally, users recommend being patient while WebStorm indexes your files.
For Visual Studio Code, the most common recommendations are to give it a try, especially if you are a student or willing to pay for it. Users also recommend using Visual Studio Code if you need a good IDE with testing, version control system, etc. Furthermore, users think that Visual Studio Code can change your coding experience for the better.
In summary, users recommend trying out both WebStorm and Visual Studio Code to see if they meet your specific needs and preferences in terms of features, ease of use, and compatibility with your programming stack.

Excellent IDE for modern JavaScript Frameworks
I use WebStorm to develop AngularJS and Angular applications. It is not a department-wide standard, but I made the case to purchase my own license based on my experience with other JetBrains products, and it's a key part of my development process.
- Built in support for multiple technologies.
- Excellent debugger.
- Lots of plugins.
- Speed and responsiveness.
- Every now and then the indexer takes over and slows things down.
- Ease of use for new developers
- Refactoring capabilities
- Syntax checking
- Easy code navigation and shortcuts
- In-place syntax errors and corrections have helped me avoid many subtle bugs.
- Easy code style fixes help reduce failed builds from linter.
I like WebStorm better because I don't have to spend time hunting down "useful plugins" to add to VS Code. But I'm biased because I have a lot more experience with WebStorm.

Prior experience with similar JetBrains products (PHPStorm, PyCharm). I figured I would like WebStorm just as much (and I did!).
I could have given a bigger effort on evaluating free options (such as Visual Studio Code), but I don't have all the time in the world for these decisions.

It is a simple installer on a desktop. The JetBrains Toolbox is very handy too.

I haven't reported any bugs, but they have answered questions very quickly. Their billing support team was also very helpful when I needed to merge licenses across different accounts.

There's nothing bad that can be said about IntelliJ WebStorm if your web dev project leans on JavaScript
Currently, it is not listed as a corporate application that we use internally across all departments, but I believe some departments, including ours have purchased single or multi licenses for IntelliJ WebStorm. Within our department we do custom development, support and administration of enterprise web applications to support our corporate internal services. For us, WebStorm was the most practical IDE for us to use, as it accommodated all of our needs to do custom web development. We work a lot with JavaScript (NodeJS, Archibus API), so it's extremely useful for this. As well, we use Gitlab and the built-in plugins for WebStorm allow us to do everything within the IDE, instead of using multiple apps. <br>
- Plugins -- especially the Git integration
- Debuggings for JavaScript, which is very customization.
- Ability to use Flow
- Lots of cool syntax highlighting and code styling.
- A problem I have with a lot of IDEs is that they seem to go over-kill. Although not entirely a con, a dumbed down version of WebStorm would be useful.
- Subscription based license
- As an individual, who works on solo development for certain projects, WebStorm has allowed me to streamline my releases. I've been consistently saving enough time to provide clients with package releases earlier than planned.
The only other applications that I've used comparable to IntelliJ Webstorm have been Aptana Studio and Microsoft Visual Studio Code. Personally, I found Visual Studio Code too complicated. I never had the time to get around the learning curve of that IDE, since I'm so busy at work. Aptana was my go-to choice for web dev IDEs for years, and I still really love it, but for projects more geared towards JavaScript, I strongly feel WebStorm is the absolute best.

Working in a small department with lots of projects running simultaneously, I needed a JavaScript IDE that had a good reputation and did not have a huge learning curve. I was able to get up and running with WebStorm pretty fast, and without any real hiccups. It's my go to IDE for 2018.
