But what happens when your IDE is discontinued with no easy way to migrate projects? That has bit me several times over the last twenty years -- so I only rely on established proprietary tools like Emacs these days.



It was never a concern, since I only use platform languages.

If the IDE doesn't matter it is usually because the platform doesn't matter anymore.
