Well, actually the IDE is not a priority, I've driven with gedit well, that's no problem. Even I became a microide, what helps me is to compile and link the binary libraries which depends with a simple click. Where I see the difficulty, or rather the obstacles to develop faster, is in the documentation, examples, and functions that facilitate the work. For example, to send an email in SMTP in c # is a matter of a couple of lines and ready. With Vala me it was very difficult. Worse even if my applications development on the Linux (GNU / Debian) but to deliver them to production will run on Windows. Last week tried C # to replace some parts where used Vala and I found it very easy with Monodevelop. In 2 days with c # did the same as 8 days with Vala. What I suggested was to make a package that has the same functions and classes that exist in C # but Vala, with the same names, which is identical, so it would be very easy to move from one language to another.
