When I was using it, I loved the jet brains interface. The shortcuts are fire. But I also refuse to pay for anything, so I use sublime 3 for all my personal stuff. I have since forgotten all of the jet brains shortcuts and subsequently hate it and cannot use it. Lol.

Game Maker Studio. I like the visual layout and having multiple text editor windows side by side to see wtf I did wrong. It also has a decent pixel art/animation creator.

Emacs is my editor

Vscode is my debugger

Some use a variety
Vscode with Vim plugins is popular

Vim

I love VIM

Neovim.

If you want to see some examples, look for a character named "Luke Smith" on youtube with vim and latex examples. Some linux people use emacs for editor+ide features in the command line but I haven't used it much myself.

One project with Eclipse CDT but with the C++ indexer disabled due to being dogshit, everything else just with Geany.

Old question, but I felt like updating that I switched to KDevelop for C++ now, indexer working very well, Geany still on the side for scripts and ancillary files.

I tried CodeBlocks briefly, but scrapped it due to lack of CMake integration.

Depends on some factors but either neovim or VS code. VS code is the low friction route but it's bloat gets tiresome at times.

Edit: neovim with several plugins of course to get autocomplete, git integration, advanced search, etc.

but I feel that vscode takes all the "sugar" out of learning the basics of things and that can make us bad programmers. don't you think?

Vscode is a horrible editor. Good for plugins tho.

[ - ] MaryXmas 0 points 10 monthsJun 13, 2024 12:39:17 ago (+0/-0)

This is a fine line. I would opt for seeing more code whenever possible.

Protip: You don't need an IDE.
It's probably retarding your ability to actually learn the fundamentals.
Just use a text editor with syntax coloring, like gedit.
Then learn how to use the GCC/Python/Java/etc toolchain at the command line level.
