Software Alternatives & Reviews

Those of you who do web development in Ubuntu, I'm curious what tools you use.

Meld JMeter DBeaver Brackets
  1. 1
    What is Meld? Meld is a visual diff and merge tool targeted at developers.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    Eclipse IDE (IntelliJ when I have to depending on the team) (oh and I use the Eclipse package download site, not the installer) Bash shell (WSL on Windows) Gnu CLI commands Dbeaver (although I tend to use the version in the repos) MySQL Workbench (although I tend to use the version in the repos) Meld (like it better than any other comparison tool for ad hoc visual file compares) Apache JMeter (performance testing) (I tend to download and run manually instead of the one in the repos) GIMP Wireshark (great for figuring out why someone's fancy REST client isn't passing JSON correctly) SoapUI (or Postman depending on the team, I prefer SoapUI - which does REST).

  4. A modern, open source text editor that understands web design

    I like to use Brackets. It's fairly lightweight and has all the tools I need. If I am doing a quick edit I just use Vim.
