Operating System Wars, what is the best operating system for programming. ⚔️
Back in the day, I used snapd, which is similar to Mac's Homebrew. - Source: dev.to / 20 days ago
Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

My personal favourite IDE for java is Intellej Idea. Apart from not demanding the extra extension, It was designed special for Java and Java related languages so it runs java smoothly with great compilation time. So lets install it. Make sure you have snap before installing it. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
