Hi.
Curious to know what IDE/editors you guys use for developing code (and
why if you care to expound).
Are there any you prefer for linux vs windows?
just curious...
thanks
I program in Raku (Perl 6). My go to editor is
Geany. Runs in Windows and Linux.
The big thing I adore about Geany is that it is
thin enough that it under `ssh -X` over the
Internet on a DSL connection. I have two
customers with Linux servers I will ssh into
and program in Geany over the ssh connection.
(I do not care much for bloated software.)
They also have a wonderful community that will
help you out with issues.
Con: Geany does not recognize my favorite raku group
comment blocks the way I like and underscores are
hard to see. Nothing is perfect.
I will typically program in Linux and run under
qemu-kvm Windows 11 when programming for Windows.
I also will sometimes use vi, leafpad, and notepad,
but 95% of the time I am in Geany
