Which IDE or developing tools do the elementary os's team use?

What Happened?
I want to program some features to some apps, but I find it's hard to get a comfortable developing environment, can you show what tools you developing with?
It's frustrating for me to code as editing normal plain text...
Steps to Reproduce
N/A.
Expected Behavior
Maybe you can give the configs or plugins to installing for some common used tools like VSCode
or VIM
OS Version
7.x (Horus)
Software Version
Latest release (I have run all updates)

I use the native elementary apps - Code (for editing) and Terminal (for building and pushing/pulling) along with io.elementary.vala-lint
and git-gui
. I check on https://vala-doc.org for syntax if necessary. There may be more powerful IDEs but we should "eat our own dogfood" 😄
I use Visual Studio Code for editing and most times as terminal while developing, sometimes use built-in Terminal app. I use Vala plugin with Vala Language Server. If I need to check lint I use Vala-Lint. Since I clone many projects I made a bash alias for meson build
. You can add alias build='meson build --prefix=/usr && cd build'
inro your .bashrc file for quick building.

Thanks a lot! Vala plugin
for VSCode
is great!
