The last time I did any web development it was at a company that forced us to all use MS Windows and Visual Studio Code. I haven’t done anything like that in a while and I don’t even have access to a Windows install, but I want to do a bit of REACT-style web development (mostly remembering how to do it, i.e. basic tutorials.)

I guess I could install Visual Studio Code in Linux, but I’d like to take this opportunity to start using a better IDE. What’s the best privacy-respecting IDE for REACT-style web development?

Thanks.

    VSCodium is the VSCode codebase with all of the MS telemetry stuff removed. Combined with any number of react plugins it’s pretty much the de-facto standard for react webdev (and works in Windows, Mac and Linux)
