In response to that article: Well, probably the gold-standard for "native JavaScript" tooling is actually provided by TypeScript itself lol. In VSCode it's the TypeScript compiler and language server that's providing the excellent JavaScript autocomplete.

So I'm in agreeance then? Well, no, and that's why I air quoted "native JavaScript". It's extra good because TypeScript/VSCode is silently utilizing the ".d.ts" files that third party libs ship with in the background! I believe as well, at least at one point, it would auto-fetch existing "@types" packages for libs that don't ship their own.
