IntelliJ IDEA Description
IntelliJ IDEA analyzes the code and finds connections between symbols in all files and languages. This information provides in-depth coding guidance, quick navigation, clever errors analysis, and, ofcourse, refactorings. Space gives you a list of the most relevant symbols applicable in the current context. This and other completions are continuously learning from you and move the members of the most commonly used classes and packages to top of the suggestions list so you can choose them faster. This is a deeper version of Smart Completion. It lists all applicable symbols that are accessible through methods or getters within the current context. Let's say you are looking for Project but only have the Module module declaration. Space twice to get module.getProject() without any additional effort. Complete static members
Allows you to use constants or static methods easily. It displays a list of symbols that match your input and automatically adds the required import statements.

Summary: Despite its memory utilisation problem and eslint, I would keep using that IDE as it has great shortcuts for keyboard users.
Positive: I have been using this IDE for over 5 years now and love using it every single day. I find the diff GUI tool very handy when it comes to comparing 2 pieces of code. Whether it be git branches or compare with clipboard, that is awesome. Also, the runner config profile is i think what beats everything. They keyboard shortcuts are very handy when it comes to opening new projects.
Negative: Sometimes, my Macbook really struggles in terms of processing as IntelliJ could be very memory consuming application. Also, sometimes my eslint configuration is not picked up automatically and for that reason i have to switch to VS Code.
