<![CDATA[Show your code editor or IDE!]]> https://sinister.ly/Thread-Show-your-code-editor-or-IDE Fri, 17 Jan 2025 16:39:41 +0000 chunky]]> https://sinister.ly/Thread-Show-your-code-editor-or-IDE I'm curious to see how your code editors and IDEs are set up! What tools are you using, and which add-ons or extensions have become essential in your workflow?

Personally, I mainly use Visual Studio Code with a few extensions and tweaks. I used to prefer Visual Studio for anything low level but I mainly work with Dart and Python nowadays so VSCode perfectly suits my needs. Especially the automatic generation of commit messages using GitHub Copilot has become a standard I don't want to miss!

For my terminal, I use iTerm2 paired with Oh My Zsh.
