You probably meant “DE” instead “IDE” (i was confused first, but think its a typo). You should look in YouTube videos to get an idea of what it is and how it works. I would say, its something GNOME 3 inspired by its look and design, but with functionality and customization inspired by KDE. Some parts might be still under cooked, as it is still early. The question is, why do you want change from KDE? This information would be crucial to give a recommendation. And only you can answer it. Maybe try it out in a virtual machine before committing installation on your main system.
Sure, a VM would be the easiest indeed. I’ve watched some older Cosmic videos and it was far from being ready, so I couldn’t even be bothered with it, but seeing it grow and actively being worked on, has picked my interest again.
The older videos explicitly tested early alpha and beta versions. Meanwhile it is already released as official version with their distribution. Off course there might be quirks (like KDE has in example), but its ready for productive use.

Yes, I meant “DE” indeed. Habit I guess…
