@jannem great question. I should have mentioned that. For the first part of my career I used BBEdit. Then for many years I used Sublime Text before switching to Atom (only stopped because MS bought/sunset it 😡). Currently I’m using Nova, which I love.
@markwyner
Haven't heard of Nova, so it's hard to say exactly what you are looking for. Perhaps Zed would be a good alternative? It's modern, fast, and has a similar batteries-included approach to code editing and debugging. -
@baalroga ooh…Helix looks cool. I prefer a GUI editor. But I spend a lot of time in the terminal, so it might be nice to have both.
@markwyner Why not both ^^ at work, I switch between Codium and helix, if I need less features
-
@gpumoto nice. I want to play with the Flatpack experience, too. Primarily because that’s how I’m going to distribute my app.
@markwyner The whole update over the Repo manager is pretty cool.
I have to say the Repo manager is great, It automatically pulls all updates. System and programs, pretty cool way to keep everything updated.

I’m assuming I can use it without being harassed to use AI. I’m gonna explore for sure because it looks close to what I want.

@baalroga yeah, that’s what I’m saying. Irrespective of the GUI editor I run with, I’m def gonna check out Helix.

@gpumoto you mean with Flatpack? I’m so new to this. I have lots to learn.

Developer friends. I’m installing Linux on my old MacBook. What editor do you recommend?
I’m going to port my macOS accessibility app, Ratio, to Linux. I want to get it right, so I’m gonna build it there instead of on my MacBook.
Edit: I currently use Nova. I’m also a designer so I love a pretty GUI. But I’m very comfortable with CLI.
Y’all have so many great suggestions already. I appreciate you! 🙌🏻

@markwyner
I tested zed for a few weeks (and I still have it installed). It never once bugged me to add an AI account. Seems it's there if you want it, or can be completely ignored if you don't.In the end I am more comfortable with Vim so I returned there. But Zed was a good experience and I would happily recommend it for anyone looking for a polished editor.

@markwyner if you don't know vim, I find it more intuitive to use

@markwyner You can try one of many neovim setups, ex. LazyVim. Helix is also a good choice, but it doesn't have a plugin mechanism,

@markwyner Ubuntu/Kubuntu... are based on Debian and have a built-in package manager to install updates. It is a Repository manager like command line apt-get where you install updates and programs.
So, package manager and repository manager are interchangeable.
You add Flatpack to your repository manager as a new repository.
If you are new to Linux you should look for a mature Distro with a LTS.

RE: https://mastodon.uno/@tedxudine/116249807826503162
TEDxUdine è stato parte integrante del mio vissuto per 10 anni.
Ho dato tantissimo per costruire ogni pezzetto e quello che mi ha restituito è stato altrettanto, se non maggiore.Ho potuto ri-scoprire cose di me che erano rimaste a lungo sopite, mi ha confermato e rinforzato l'importanza dell'impegno, della costanza, della cura dei dettagli, che ogni singola cosa che sceglievo doveva portarsi dietro un significato vero e intenso.
Ora è tempo di costruire altri tempi.

@aeva the best part is that those aren't even mutually exclusive!
