Using an IDE in general has pros and cons. One of my favourite feature is code completition and auto generated code. Additionally most IDEs have cool debugging tools. What for the expert is a bless because it saves time and headache can also be a grudge for those who want to learn how things work together. If you start learning from zero, you may miss important things and get lost if you have to develop in an unknown environment (like another IDE). Alternatively, one could make a compromise and use an Editor like sublime or notepad++ that supports code highlighting (and auto complete ! ;) ), but does not manage the infrastructure of your code like auto imports or code generation and those magicks. Once you learned the Basics, use an IDE. When it comes to favourite IDEs and making a choice, it mostly depends on your preferations, language and requirements. There is no "best for every purpose" solution. Visual Studio is fine as long as you are on Windows, I guess. Happy best of coding.
