The Big Programming Thread - Page 1032
| Forum Index > General Forum |
Thread Rules 1. This is not a "do my homework for me" thread. If you have specific questions, ask, but don't post an assignment or homework problem and expect an exact solution. 2. No recruiting for your cockamamie projects (you won't replace facebook with 3 dudes you found on the internet and $20) 3. If you can't articulate why a language is bad, don't start slinging shit about it. Just remember that nothing is worse than making CSS IE6 compatible. 4. Use [code] tags to format code blocks. | ||

My options are Mac or Windows ![]() At home I use kitty+fish on one of my laptops, and that's mostly nice aside from the weird ctrl+c behavior Thankfully at my current company when they sent me a windows laptop and I asked if I can just wipe it and install Linux instead they were like "do whatever you want with it." It was really refreshing after years of being forced to use Macs with all the company oversight bullshit on it. | ||

I’ve yet to familiarise myself enough with Vim to do anything but slow my workflow, but I will give it a full dedicated day or two and get on top of it, I do see the value in it long term Thanks in advance Hey, I just read that. I'm a vim enjoyer, primarily using vim motions everywhere. And that is what I'd recommend: Just start using vim motions in your IDE of choice. Especially in frontend code, I really enjoy the things like ci" to immediately replace the next thing surrounded by double quotes on the line. Nowadays it's possible to embed your neovim instance in VS Code instead of just using vim emulation (which doesn't reeeaaaaally matter as long as one just wants to use vim motions). The downside is that some keybinds will be used by the vim plugin, but usually VS Code is good about mentioning that, so it's easy to detect clashes once they occur and then change a keybind. | ||
