I’ve used VS Code for a long time, but have recently grown weary of Microsoft’s approach to OSS. I’ve checked out VS Codium which seems like it might be a great option.
What text editor are you using?
always vim
You mean there’s something other than vim? The hell you say.
vimin terminal
Notepad++ on Windows
VSCode on MacOSAll using Solarized Dark for the color scheme.
I feel old, I’m still using vi.
Neovim
Have been using Emacs for over a decade, and I’m fairly happy with it.
I’m using GNU Emacs, which is, from my experience, great for open source software and decentralized development. Last year, I found an issue in a package/extension, I could make an experiment by modifying and running its code on the fly. I didn’t even need to reload the whole package/extension. So I figured the solution out and submitted a pull request quickly.
1- terminal-based text editor,
2- with mouse support,
3- 1000 x better than nano(editor) & vim (just kidding, 5 x better)Vim and neovim have mouse support as well. Micro has less plugins and is overall less configurable than (neo)vim. The style sure is different, but in terms of features, vim outclasses micro atm.
This was already asked in !programming@lemmy.ml: https://lemmy.ml/post/53721
There is a big difference between an IDE and an editor!
An editor is much more simple, while an IDE offers complete project management and other tools!Yes and no. The answers to both questions overlap.
Can be, but don’t need.
The question in !programming@lemmy.ml assumes that the editor is used for programming. Here, however, the focus is on OpenSource and does not necessarily have anything to do with programming.
