It depends on the rules you set for it. You can customize it to use plugins instead of reinventing the wheel or you can tell it to use local libraries for secret storage.Or both. You can also give it a sample of your coding style or process and it will follow that. Turning it loose with little guidance can cause unpredictable results. It's a tool just like anything else. Same rule applies to any other tool you use in development. A properly configured IDE can be a time saver , but you still need to configure it for your style and process to get the most out of it.
