    They are fairly similar, however, without its teeming extension ecosystem, VSCode would be no match for WebStorm out-of-the-box.

    Is not an alternative to Webstorm. One is an actual application, the other is a glorified webpage.

    It's a full-fledged IDE ready to take on similar workloads. With a few well-made extensions, it may be ready to take on way more than just basic HTML/JS/CSS editing.
