While I agree that Notepad++ is a great text editor, it is not the best for specific tasks.
Unless there is a plugin to make it more JS centrict, it is not as good as the IDEs listed.
I code with Visual Studio because it has all the tools to help make that better. Not that I could not do it 100% in Notepad++

Or Github's Atom.

I primarily use PhpStorm to edit JavaScript (as it's a part of PHP projects most of the time), however my wife uses WebStorm and says it's the best editor. Additionally, I've used it a bit as well, it's not far off from PhpStorm, and it's definitely the best. I think what a lot of people don't consider are things like code completion, parameter suggestions/hints, context linking, etc which things like Notepad++ do not do. Those things alone make things go much faster.

WebStorm is probably best if JS is really what you are doing full time, and not just as part of a different project in a different language. I love the JetBrains tools.

Webstorm is just so good and so focused on JavaScript. And it is half the price of other JetBrains tools. At $49 for a single personal license, not a major investment.

I use RubyMine daily now and love it. JetBrains makes some of my favourite stuff.
