Is language adoption driven by the performance of its available IDEs?

Simply put, if the designers of a new language want it to be adopted and interested in the largest group of programmers, should these designers create high-performance (from the point of view of Intellisense functions) to stimulate the adoption of the language?

Yes.

Even if you have created the most useful, most advanced language on the planet, I'm not going to waste my time coding if I need to use notepad.

In an environment where developers are used to a good IDE, it is more difficult to protect the use of the new language if some of the IDE users use insufficient language support.

eg. There are many new languages ​​on the Java platform that can be used in conjunction with Java, such as Groovy, Scala, JRuby, etc. So far this has been a problem if you want to start using Groovy and some of the developers use Eclipse because Groovy support in Eclipse has not been so good (fortunately, this is changing now).
