I prefer Java in VS Code, but unfortunately there's no solid option for Kotlin outside of IntelliJ.

One of my two major gripes about Kotlin -- that, and the lack of a standardized style guide and formatting tool so that there's no bikeshedding or difference between repos.



Java in VSCode is either Eclipse or Netbeans running headless, better use the real deal.

Of course that is no Kotlin outside InteliJ, JetBrains even has a blog post on how Kotlin is supposed to help selling more licenses.

By the way, for a little while there were some JetBrains employees doing an Eclipse plugin, but naturally they ramped out that effort.
