IDE thread

Which IDE do you use? I’d been using emacs for 10 years, but I recently moved to C# and it’s really hard to beat the debugger in M$VS.

nano

VS. 2019 is better and I feel they’re going into the right direction. They certainly improved the look and interface design and strapped out a lot of bloat.

I’m still mad they made the c# experiment. Very rude. The GC pauses are atrocious and it’s still too slow. The mandatory login and news bell also are atrocious.

I didn’t want to accept that it’s the most productive but reflection led me to the light. After years of use I’m slowly getting comfy even though it’s a presumptuous, rude, thick girl.

nano is not an ide, it's a scratchpad. I miss it though.

nano is very integrated. it has syntax highlighting, indentation, linter and formatter support, macros... everything i need.

nano.

Nano. I used to use emacs but configuring is a bitch and I don't have the patience anymore for it.

What about debuggier, renaming, file drawer, search, jump to definition, function params and field preview?

Did you change the keybinds to the common ones or did you change your webrowser keybinds to nano?

nano has the file draw, everything else is bloat

i dont actually use nano but it's important to defend good ides

A debugger is the biggest productivity improvement there is. It works wonders for exploratory programming and understand bad codebases.

A big part of the success of the web and chrome is its fantastic debugger. A big part of the success of windows lies in the excellent inbuilt debugger and performance and syscall tracers.

You rejected moderation when it caused your textboard to be overrun by fascists and Redditors; will you reject it still now that it's causing it to be overrun by scrubs?

What's the sudden love for nano? It's not the first time I read something positive about it. I have used it only once, eons ago. It was the first time I used linux but then a sysadmin boomer yelled at me and told me to fucking learn vi or to immediately kill myself on the spot. I yielded, I was young and easily influenced. Did I really miss something?

No, the recent batches of undergrads just haven't had a wholesome Unix beard to yell at them since Amazon bought all the campuses Microsoft didn't already own.

That sounds stupid. If you know what you're doing, you don't need anything specific. That's why I begrudgingly tolerate my peers who use Windows and MacOS since I know they're probably just coming from a different place, even though GNU+Linux is the most optimal bootloader for Emacs. I can get why he'd yell at you for using Emacs, since it has defaults and features that can do stuff like replace spaces with tabs, and that's obnoxious if you have a specific style policy, but no text editor is so feature-ful that it can usurp another tool in the market; that's why they're called text editors: because they all edit text. I'm a card-carrying Emacs user, and I used to use ed all the time, mostly to edit config files so that I can get into Emacs, up until the point where most operating systems stopped shipping with the microscopic ed for some insipid reason, then I used zile, but I would use nano if zile weren't there (which it isn't, a lot of the time). I used ed almost out of principle, because I couldn't understand why someone would bother to accomodate vi's keybindings (which aren't great if you're using dvp like me, and then you end up having to use ed, anyway, to edit the config file for vi to make it work with your keymap, which is moronic) when it's so useless for quality-of-life things. Unlike vi, ed doesn't lie to you and pretend like it's anything more than a text editor. IDE's exist for quality of life, but text is text.
