Programming

Personally, I mostly use neovim, both at home and at work. My reasons are:

1. I hate any kind of screen cluttering. The minimap comes straight from hell.
2. it's very responsive. I don't even bother using language servers as they occasionally introduce micro delays that I hate.
3. it helps me in organizing the code better. No minimap means I keep the file size manageable, not seeing the definition of the function straight away means I keep the static complexity of the code in check (tend to reduce the number of delegates). It doesn't help when I have to read cose from legacy codebase, but I don't care too much about that.

Helix text editor

Wezterm + Neovim. Glorious

Neovim + LLDB, because I like vim motions and hate electron apps.

At work I used VS Code with vim integration, or an OpenSUSE tumbleweed VM with neovim, which I “integrated” into the windows terminal. Unfortunately, WSL was not allowed due to valid security concerns.

Emacs because i feel like dumb on other editors, on emacs every action is instant with out any mouse input

Mostly intellij ultimate, and sometimes VSCode as jetbrains Vue Support is not as good as the official plugin for VSCode.

It's really weird they don't want to show type errors inside the template, but whatever.

Other than that, I try to integrate AI assistants into my workflow. Currently trying out Cody, which works good so far, but I think without the sourcegraph integration it can't show it's full potential. But 50k$ seems a little expensive for my company haha

Mostly Visual Studio Ultimate for general workloads, regardless of what I'm writing for, it has the facilities to support pretty much every compiler and format.

For quickly editing / patching some source on Linux, just plain Nano.

Otherwise, these days, mainly VSCode.

But if I get into an environment where it's another IDE, I wouldn't care either way.

I'm language and editor agnostic and use editors out of convenience (like having Visual Studio Ultimate available to me) and languages depending on what is most appropriate for the task.

My biggest pet peeve in development is that people keep shoehorning their preferred language onto any task.

neovim cause writing ig?

vim, vscodium, android studio 'cos i'm forced to.

nvim for smaller projects, and vscode for larger ones mostly. Both because they're very extensible, support a lot of languages and language servers, and are quick to load files.

For most languages 70% VSCode, 29% neovim+nvchad and 1% other editors like kate or nano. For Java I use eclipse.

I’ve tried using JetBrains IDEs but they never grew on me…

neovim. I have customized my config to my liking over the past couple of years. + it also can opn embedded terminals, so I don't have to leave the editor at all while working

gedit in native Linux or WSL2. use it for Ansibke, python, C, bash, basically anything I need to edit. Has a git plugin, bottom terminal pane, left open files / current folder pane. Does all I need it to do, and it's not a huge fuckoff electron app.

Jetbrains, all round. Datagrip is way faster and easier than SSMS for day to day queries, Clion does a great job in almost anything compiled, PyCharm makes it easier to manage large Python code bases over standard, the list goes on. Their software is expensive, but so so good.

I'm stuck on windows in the IDE of a certain large chip manufacturer for doing embedded DSP. God, I wish I could have any level of customization. But at least it has vim mode.

Kate text editor. I only use vscodium if i really have to, usually at work.

Reading these comments, there sure aren't a lot of R programmers out there.

RStudio for R, Spyder for Python, Emacs for either of the above when I want to be cool.

Micro for quick CLI edits. VSCode for mashing text and PowerShell JetBrains Suite for everything else. LazyGit is amazing BTW. Pairs well with LazyDocker.

Geany for syxntax highlightning. Then alot of git precommit hooks for linting, formatting, etc.

I write Bash and simpler Python scripts in Vim.

I use Thonny for my larger Python projects and MicroPython, when I mess around with that.

I write GDScript in Godot's editor.

Vim.

If I were a more competent coder I might use a bigger IDE, but for the basic stuff I do, it works great for me.
