Pirated Microsoft word running in wine.
Vim. Done.
Emacs. Butterfly.
Of course there’s a command for that.
Now we must go to war.
I wonder how many people get this ref nowadays.
Xkcd is timeless :D
There is no contest; it’s not even funny.
I like Emacs.
JetBrains, SublimeText, VS Code, NeoVim, Nano! <3
Though I am not on Windows OS, but if you are, you may find the debugger of Visual Studio (non Code) quite awesome, too.
Once you’re comfortable with (neo)vim, is there any reason to use nano?
NeoVim is a miracle, but is utterly rarely installed on machines, and especially on servers. Same as Micro.
Nano is frequently pre-installed, sometimes even with syntax highlihgting at/usr/share, more comfortable than standard Vim in general, I believe.
I’ve worked years in vim with plugins, but keeing it up with plugins working, that are not maintained anymore was quite a pain.
It was the most perfect IDE I had though.
After that, I’ve tried CLion, because I quickly needed something that worked with really large projects.
But with every update it got worse.
Currently I’m on zed and kinda happy with it.
There is still some stuff I’m missing and their focus on AI seems to overpower necessary features like multi windows - which is my main concern, as I need those badly.But I’m too over worked to actually setup a new vim/neovim environment and don’t really know where to go…
Edit: many co workers went to VS Code, I’m spoiled with the search function of CLion.
Editing interfaces just by searching and replacing/extending existing code was a breeze. Didn’t find this anywhere else…Zed and neovim.
I have no idea how good it is for C++, but Zed is so nice in general.
Is it good despite the LLM marketing on the front page? That turns me away whenever I look at it, but I’d be willing to try it if it doesn’t shove LLMs down my throat.
In my opinion, now that merges are easier to do, there is no reason to use VS Code any more. Now if only there was a native Slack client, I could be Electron free…
matrix with slack bridge?
I’ll try tomorrow… if I remember.
I’m primarily c# and typescript. At work I have Visual Studio and VS code. At home I use jetbrains Rider and Webstorm. I personally prefer jetbrains, but I can’t give a reason. It just feels better to me.
When I did try to learn a little C, I used neovim for everything. Partly because I wanted to force myself to learn vim commands, and also because I wanted to just try coding in my terminal.
Don’t waste time. Either neovim or emacs.
