But that's something new to learn and configure. I just want to code why should I spend my time learning another text editor when vscodium is fine
Who doesn't want to go through learning of text editor and pain of configuring instead of actually coding?
Well...obviously them.
Well, if you learned emacs, you could do everything in it and won't have to change ever again! /s kinda
lapce is a vscode replacement that has all the sugar that people love and it's blazingly fast. It's still in alpha but I'm very hopeful for it's future.
I have looked at lapce and I am hopeful it will mature enough to replace vscode. I haven't had the time to see if it works enough to replace vscode for my daily work, but I am planning on trying it again soon.
Fleet seems promising but not sure how I feel about another JetBrains editor.
Glad you liked it :) It still has issues but the development is happening at breakneck pace. I'm planning on daily driving it once it goes beta.
I also have conflicting feelings about jetbrains IDEs. Does fleet have a community edition? I use pycharm sometimes but also hate it sometimes.
Right now fleet is basically a community edition. They had stated there will be a paid version. So I am wondering how many features will be locked behind a paywall. Hopefully they have all the features from the beta available and just add some enterprise features to the paid version.
I really miss atom, would have been great if MS didn't kill that project. It would be interesting to see how it would have compared to code.
Hopefully it'll stay that way. Otherwise there is EAP I suppose. That's what I do with webstorm.
For me it's Sublime text. It's blazingly fast and robust, but because it isn't as popular as code and not open, there aren't as many plugins. I honestly think that if it had been opensource, it would have captured the market share that vscose holds now.
Emacs isn't super great for C#. The language server is a bit hit and miss.
Personally though, I use Kate. Ain't got time to learn new keybindings
Am I correct that you also don't get access to the extensions marketplace, though?
You can add the normal vscode extension repos https://github.com/OliverKeefe/vscode-extensions-in-vscodium
hit or miss but many of the popular ones work
I tried it a few months back, and unfortunately the free marketplace didn't have a number of extensions that make or break VS Code for me.
I settled on relying on my pihole to block as much M$ telemetry as I could.
Is there firefox based vscode? (JOKE)
Sadly with much less extensions, i use it just to compile and flash my marlin 3D printer and every extension needed has to be set up manually, for some reason even then i can't get it to work.
You can change your product.json to gain access to the Microsoft extension repositories. I still don't do it because fuck ms, for the few extensions that I do need I download them as .vsix on the web frontend.
What you think Tauri's potential in cross-platform ui like editors development?
