I started out my coding career using sublime, moved to atom relatively quickly, experimented with jetbrains products but didn’t like it, and moved to VSCode soon after it was released and have been using it since.

There were a few people at work who had been on the same path as me before and were trying to turn me to the “dark side”, and I eventually gave in and told myself I would give it a try for two weeks and see how I liked it.

Up until a few months ago I would have thought vim would never replace vscode for me, but here I am typing this message having been using vim as my only editor/ide for the last two and a half months.

I use neovim nightly with the builtin lsp and treesitter support and I don’t think I’ll ever go back. It’s not only faster itself, but I am more efficient using it.

I went to RIT where the deaf community is huge, and I immediately read this article looking for a mention of it. I am not shocked I was right!

I personally feel like websites will win the war against native mobile apps in the long run.

I read a while ago that Steve Jobs never wanted the idea of an App Store on iOS, as he believed webapps and web based services would evolve naturally without any added infrastructure, whereas an App Store would require extreme development effort and infrastructure from Apple.

Obviously he was wrong, and the App Store exploded once it was added.

However, I believe long term his idea is correct, it was just wrong timing. Webapps have only gotten more and more powerful as time has gone on, and they do not require any explicit download from the user and can be updated automatically by the developer. More and more access to the devices physical resources is slowly being added as the years go on, and it’s only a matter of time until more and more are added.

I will admit for scenarios like games or resource intensive computing where access to bare metal is necessary, I’m not sure webapps will be able to fill that void. But for most everything else I see the web as a the future, while mobile apps are the temporary means to an end while browser APIs and capabilities catch up

This looks great. When sublime first came out it was by far the best option available. I think for huge files and raw performance (besides vim) it’s still the best option. But for almost all tasks I have these days I used VSCode. It’s hard to beat.

A lot of developers love to “build over buy”, but I think HubSpot would be a great solution to this use case. All of the features you want are available under the free tier
