Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) with visual editing allow developers to manipulate and arrange graphical elements and code components using a user-friendly, often drag-and-drop, interface. This capability enhances the development process by providing real-time visual feedback, reducing the need to manually write extensive code for UI layouts and other visual elements. The benefits include increased efficiency, as developers can quickly iterate and refine designs, improved accuracy through immediate visual validation of changes, and a more intuitive development experience that bridges the gap between design and implementation, ultimately leading to faster project completion and higher quality software products.

Several IDEs offer visual editing including:

• IntelliJ IDEA by JetBrains, lets you visually edit layouts and UI elements, enhancing productivity with its intuitive design tools and real-time feedback.
• Delphi Professional by Embarcadero, allows you to create and adjust graphical interfaces seamlessly, streamlining the development of visually rich applications efficiently.
• EiffelStudio by Eiffel Software provides a robust environment for visual editing, allowing developers to design and adjust UIs with precision and immediate visual confirmation.
• B4i (iOS) by Anywhere Software, facilitates the visual design of iOS applications, enabling swift and accurate manipulation of UI components for rapid development.

Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) commonly offer code templates, pre-written snippets that expedite coding. These templates can be for common code constructs (like loops or conditional statements) or entire files (like new classes). By leveraging code templates, developers can improve their coding efficiency, reduce errors from repetitive typing, and enforce coding standards by incorporating best practices into the templates themselves. This is particularly useful for frequently used elements or adhering to project-specific coding styles.

Several IDEs offer support for code templates including:

• IntelliJ IDEA by JetBrains offers robust code templates for file creation, code snippets, and live code generation.
• Delphi Professional by Embarcadero supports code templates for frequently used code blocks and entire file structures.
• UEStudio by UltraEdit empowers programmers with customizable code templates to streamline repetitive coding tasks.
• EiffelStudio by Eiffel Software allows you to define code templates for frequently used Eiffel constructs, promoting code consistency.
