   Has almost everything I need

   I've started using this as my main IDE for new projects when I'm trying things out. If it keeps getting better at the rate it has been, it'll be even better than coding locally.

   Competitors: replit

   Pros:    Easy to get started and operate|Fast|Supports common extensions|Works with most npm packages

   Cons:    Still not as good as local development|Can be hard to debug|Build times can be slower than local

• You probably don't need Oh My Zsh

  Https://fishshell.com/ https://xon.sh/ https://www.nushell.sh/ https://elv.sh/ You're replying to someone that says POSIX shells are holding people back, not that the terminal is a bad idea, there are many alternative shells which offer benefits over POSIX shells. fish-shell has everything you want from an interactive shell included, xonsh is a mix Python shell, nushell and elvish are adding types and other things... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• The Case for Nushell (2023)

  Well if you want a python/shell hybrid there's always xonsh (https://xon.sh/). Really great in particular for people like me who are bash-challenged. I do like Nushell too but I also always had problems remembering the actual language. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

  Xonsh is perfect for this: https://xon.sh. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• What Killed Perl?

  > Maybe to use as a better Bash? If you know Python, just switch to xonsh (https://xon.sh/). I've been using it as my primary shell since 2018. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Take Two: Eshell

  I like the point raised by the author here about the power of elisp in the shell. For context, I've used emacs for well over a decade and write a good bit of elisp most weeks. However, I ended up finding elisp to be the wrong language for replacing a shell: it removes a lot of capabilities for not enough reward, imo: it's just the wrong abstraction because elisp's most natural transformations are very stateful and... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• RS-X: Framework-agnostic reactive state and expressions for JavaScript/TS

  Managing reactive state and dependent computations in JavaScript can get complex, especially when combining asynchronous and synchronous data. RS-X is a library that allows you to bind expressions to plain objects and makes the parts of the model used by those expressions fully reactive. Dependent computations automatically update when the underlying data changes. RS-X is framework-agnostic. While it can drive UI... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN: I combine Htmx, LiveView and SolidJS for interactive server components

  I like htmx, LiveView, React and Solid. They are great at different points, so I try to combine them in Solv (Stateless Offline-capable LiveView) and write a prototype to show the benefits. Solv's main idea is that stateless servers keep client's state in a volatile cache. It enables server components that are also interactive, which is best of both worlds between LiveView and htmx. Then fine-grained reactivity is... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Show HN: Solv – Stateless Offline-Capable LiveView – Prototype 03

  I like htmx, LiveView, React and Solid. They are great at different points, and this is a prototype trying to combine them. Solv's main idea is that stateless servers keep client's state in a volatile cache. It enables server components that are also interactive, which is best of both worlds between LiveView and htmx. Then fine-grained reactivity is added to achieve efficient DOM updates + minimal payload size.... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• AutoView - turning your blueprint into UI components (AI Code Generator)
