• Managing python projects like a pro!

  Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows, aimed at making it easier for users to manage software installations and maintain a clean system. It's designed with developers and power users in mind but can be beneficial for any Windows user looking for an efficient way to manage software. Basically it makes our life easier when it comes to software installation of any sort. Scoop support installation for large... - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• bruhJustLemmeDownloadTheSdk

  Use a package manager! Assuming Windows (since it's the odd one out), get yourself some scoop then just scoop install openjdk. No need to navigate to a website, download bundleware, click next-next-next and accidentally install a virus like some caveman from 1997. This has been a solved problem since ancient times!

• How easy is it to setup Neovim and Nvchad on windows?

  Should be easy enough, I installed neovim on my windows machine with scoop (you can even get nightly if you want), it's basically a one line install. You can also do a manual install if you want, but you don't have to. It took a little fiddling for me because I wanted to install scoop as well as all applications onto my D drive rather than my C drive, but nothing too crazy. I never got NvChad on my windows...

• Calibre – New in Calibre 7.0

  I update it with Brew on macOS and Scoop [1] on Windows (but I guess it is included in other package managers such as chocolatey). Of course, a built-in auto-updater would be good, but a packaged version is a nice workaround for me. [1]: https://scoop.sh/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN: QuIDE 2 – cross plattform quantum-circuit designer

  At our research chair (https://mnm-team.org) we used QuIDE (https://quide.eu) quite a lot to try out quantum circuits and teach quantum computing to our students. As many of us were not using Windows that was kind of annoying, because it was only running on Windows. So one of our students refactored QuIDE for Windows (https://quide.eu) together with us with Avalonia UI (https://avaloniaui.net/) for cross platform... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• The search for easier safe systems programming

  WPF is not the best example of open source, as some components are still closed source. Though it only runs on Windows, a closed source operating system, so perhaps that is not so important. https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/issues/2554. - Source: Hacker News / 26 days ago

• .NET on Linux: What a Contrast

  Yes, but the portable GUI frameworks by Microsoft themselves are generally not very good, and they tend to be abandoned after a couple of years. Avalonia is developed outside of the Microsoft corporate madness and seems to be slowly becoming the defacto cross-platform framework because it is expected to last a bit longer than a manager's attention span: https://avaloniaui.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
