Let’s start with an introduction: WebStorm is a JavaScript development tool owned by jetbrains. It has been praised by the majority of Chinese JS developers as "Web front-end development artifact", "the most powerful HTML5 editor", "the most intelligent JavaScript IDE", etc. It has the same origin as IntelliJ IDEA and inherits the functions of the powerful JS part of IntelliJ IDEA.
Today I wrote the front-end framework code and tried Webstorm. I used sublime before and thought webstorm was very good.
There are several main points when comparing the two:
1. Webstorm can directly create a new html file under the project on the left side of the software.
2. Open in the browser without right-clicking --> Open in the browser. Webstorm has built-in five major browsers: Google, IE, Firefox, Opera, and Safari. Just move the mouse up and the five major browsers will be displayed. (The prerequisite is to install it), you can choose a suitable browser to test.
3. Webstorm can save automatically. You don’t have to worry about forgetting to save a certain file when you need a lot of files and the page will not refresh. Sublime cannot save automatically. When the page cannot be refreshed, you have to go back and save them all again. .
4. Webstorm prompts an error, which can be corrected in time. In sublime, due to small mistakes in the Chinese and English input methods, the page cannot be refreshed as planned. You need to go back and check the code again, and you have to rely on your eyesight to see it, which is a bit bad.
5. Webstorm comments can be nested, but sublime cannot.
6. Webstorm can also recognize tags in quotation marks, but sublime cannot.
One more thing:
WebStorm: integrated development environment; Sublime Text: editor
The former has integrated the environment and some running functions. For example, if you want to run a program you wrote, you can directly do so in WebStorm. You can run it by clicking the run button, but this is not possible in Sublime Text, but now there are more and more plug-ins on Sublime Text for front-end engineers to use.
If you are just getting started, WebStorm is easier to get started with, and if you are looking for something cool, Sublime Tex is more compact
