What's it like working with Angular in Vim? I'm a VSCode user myself, but I've seen people live coding at conferences using Vim and couldn't quite believe how fast they were editing files. The VSCode Vim extension has around 1.5m installs, so I'm guessing there's something about VSCode that attracts Vim users, but not sure what that is

I'm a React guy so I couldn't really tell you - haven't used Angular since version 1.

You could make it into a pretty decent environment for editing Typescript with vim-ale for completion and linting (possibly also with a completion plugin like coc.vim or Deoplete), a snippet manager, and a plugin for Typescript support.
