I use both VSCode (in Vim mode) and Vim+Tmux in my work these days.

VSCode is good for working in TypeScript codebases—I couldn't find any way to show helpful and long TS compiler errors in Vim nicely.

However, VSCode’s terminal is semi-broken and sessions do not persist, so for other kinds of work that might involve grepping around, running builds and one-off data migration scripts, etc., Tmux+Vim (with respective shortcuts to unify pane navigation) work perfectly.
