• IDEs vs Text Editors in 2023 for Web Dev: what things have you found full size IDE's like Webstorm can do that VSCode cannot in 2023 which make you more productive? Specially today now that TypeScript + AI coding tools level the playing field even further.

  Used to be true, but between Quokka.js for quick prototypes, Wallaby.js for running tests smartly within the IDE, and now Console Ninja which enables inline console.log within the VSCode while running servers for common tooling (webpack, vite). As well as continuously improving collaboration tools like Live Share, And it's become hard for me to find an argument that Webstorm is still better for productivity here. Source: about 1 year ago

• Use Go in my start-up or stick to TS which I already know?

• I'd like to use a REPL in my workflow for getting feedback on my code. Is this a reasonable ask? If not, how do you check your code as you go?

  I’m a Clojure(script) dev learning TS. My Clojure REPL flow is Cursive + IntelliJ. The closest equivalent I’ve found is https://quokkajs.com for inline evaluation and https://wallabyjs.com for test evaluation. Both are paid products but have free 30 day evaluation periods. Both work in IntelliJ and VsCode. Source: over 1 year ago

• [AskJS] Confused and Struggling

  If you want to code and practice your JS in a sandbox, I highly recommend using VS Code (if you're not already using that for your HTML/CSS) in conjunction with Quokka.js. If you use `console.log()` function to log your results, Quokka will output directly in the editor. There are online resources that do something similar like codesandbox.io but I've found it nice to have a local environment. Source: almost 2 years ago

• JS

  Your code editor has an extension installed called Quokka, which is how you are seeing the console.logged values right beside the code; without that extension, you would have to open the browser console to see it. Source: about 2 years ago
