Windows + Visual Studio :(

Debian at home, Rocky Linux at work

VSCodium or Godot depending on what I'm working on.

Whatever language support via LSP is available for VSCodium, Prettier, I'll have to check the rest. Nothing that drastically changes the experience. Basically whatever does auto formatting, code completion(without using "AI"), and error highlighting.

• Arch Linux (btw.)
• hyprland
• helix
• kitty
• LibreWolf (for research)

• NixOS + Home Manager
• Niri
• Kitty
• Neovim, via Neovide

For work it's Fedora + Home Manager because the remote admin software doesn't support NixOS. Thankfully I've been able to define my dev environment almost fully in a Home Manager config that I can use at work and at home.

I use lots of Neovim plugins. Beyond the basic LSP and completion plugins, some of my indispensables are:

• Leap for in-buffer navigation & remote text copying
• Oil for file management
• Fugitive + Git Signs + gv.vim + diffview.nvim for git integration
• nvim-surround to add/change/remove delimiters
• vim-auto-save
• kitty-scrollback

Linux, KDevelop, C++

Windows ME. Notepad.

Linux, Plasma, VSCodium with the clang. cmake, and Qt extensions

A messy bedroom.

Varies a bit with job, but by far the most in the last 15 years:

Linux (Debian), Emacs, tiling window manager (i3/sway/stumpwm), also gollum wiki + org-mode for writing docs. For small quick edits, I use vim.

I use Arch in a VM, or (preferred) Guix package manager for tools that require newer versions of software.

On the job, I write mostly C++/Python/Go/Rust, at home more Rust, Python, and the Lisps.

Work (frequently some kind of embedded) uses also e.g. Ubuntu, OpenSuSE Leap, Gnome, eclipse, and so on.

Linux, emacs.

• NixOS
• Hyprland (pending migration to Niri)
• Emacs (eglot)

I occasionally use Jetbrains products as well (e.g. maintaining Kotlin projects).

NixOS, fish, tmux, Helix, jj

OS: Debian (Trixie)

DE: KDE Plasma

I use vim for light edits. Currently using VSCodium, but am slowly trying out Kate. I use codeberg as Version Control, and Konsole as the terminal.

I also have notepadqq (a native alternative to notepad++), but prefer vim and am also trying to switch to Kate.

Kate, LSP, Linux.

Arch + i3wm/sway + Tmux + Neovim

OS: W11

IDE: Rider, Webstorm, VSCode and for legacy apps Visual Studio

Shell: Powershell w/ OhMyPosh, I find Powershell a hassle to use but I set it up once after seeing a colleague use it and kept it

I would like to point out that there are quite some Linux devs in the replies. I feel like I don’t belong here.

• OS:
  • Arch Linux or OpenBSD, depending in how I feel
• Editor:
  • Micro on Linux
  • mg(1) on OpenBSD
• Plug-ins:
  • Micro has support for a few linters, which is all I really need
  • mg(1), meanwhile, doesn't even have syntax highlighting
• Terminal:
  • Kitty on Linux
  • XTerm on OpenBSD
• Shell:
  • Zsh on Linux
  • ksh on OpenBSD
• Version Control:
  • Git is the only realistic option (though Mercurial and Fossil are nice)
• Code Hosting:
  • Usually Codeberg
  • I also have sourcehut
  • My Formula Student team uses GitLab
  • My university and another society use GitHub 🤮

I usually licence my work under GPL if it's a large project, or Beerware if it's something smaller (or if it's for internal use in one of my societies).

Any coursework I do, however, gets licenced under BSD-3-clause. For this, GPL would be too restrictive and Beerware would be too informal, and BSD-3-clause is a nice middle-ground (as far as I'm concerned).

Windows, Visual Studio, Telerik (why yes I'm forced to use this for work...)

I got started in dev work recently and have gotten used to this setup, I kinda want to learn vscode and host it on my server or something but I'm not really sure what kind of projects I can work on for myself, also not sure learning another IDE while learning in general is a great idea.

Flexible, but Linux/macos predominantly. Jetbrains (CLion/RustRover). No specific plugins, JB IDEs are pretty good out of the box.

At work my OS on my workstation is Windows 11. In an average month I use C#, C++, Python, and Javascript. I usually have at least one instance of VS code and VS pro open. I also use Rider because we use plug-ins for one project. Everything is pretty default except the layout I use.

At home my dev PC is rynning on Kubuntu and I use VS code as an IDE. I use whatever language fits the team/project. When I can choose I mainly use C# or Rust. After using C# at school and your first job outside of school, you get really fast at expressing yourself in C#.

For me my keyboard is an import because I want a consistent feel wherever I am. So for typing I use the same clicky switches on my coding keyboards with keycaps that have the same shape and profile.

OS: Arch DM: Niri Terminal: Kitty Editor: Helix

OS: Ubuntu IDE: IntelliJ for Java/Kotlin, VSCode for Scala, sometimes Helix for particular files

I run Manjaro, and use neovim for my development. I've got a slew of plugins for everything from language servers to database to things like integration with tmux and specialty motions.

I've tried many development environments, but so far I keep coming back to nvim.

I've been a fan for about 5 years at this point, and I use it for PHP+js+html at my day job and Rust for personal projects, but also any other language that comes up. Delightful to have one editor that can do basically everything and do it with consistent shortcuts, that I can even run on my phone with a folding keyboard.

Arch with Niri, LazyVim in Ghostty.

Gentoo, Neovim.

I should switch to Helix, if I ever find the time.

Bazzite and Kinote though I use distrobox and k8s alot for messing with other distros/apps. Vscodium and neovim. Vscodium is loaded up with nearly anything IaC or kubernetes related and Continue for some AI stuff (pointed to local and mistrial). Also heavy opinionated stuff for Python like black, etc (I want my ide to yell at me to make better code). Some GitHub and git lab add-ons too. Nvim is just as is.

KDE Neon, with Icons-Only task manager and global menu in a top bar. I have shortcuts for moving between activities and custom one for "show in all/show only in current activity" with a KWin script. Window rules for everything to open in the correct activity. Neon is not super stable but it's nice and fun to get the latest KDE stuff.

IDE is Neovim and Rider (Jetbrains)

Neovim config is kickstart.nvim + autosave, noice-ui, commentary, luasnip and harpoon.

Rider has Nyan progress bar, key promoter X, Ideavim and gittoolbox. I want to move to Neovim but debugger experience is very good in Rider. ctrl+p and alt+tab, Navigation is a bit too slow for me.

Also bash, it's big part of my development environment since I really like using the terminal and making alias and functions for everything. I have "clipboard filepath - > js code generator - > clipboard" stuff for example and it's nice to just type gen -ts to convert C# class to TS interface ready to paste. Play/pause media with p, navigate to project and start it name [all, start, cs]. ref to fuzzy find a git branch and switch to it. Log how many hours I worked with logtime etc. I hate bash as a language but as a tool to interact with the computer I love deeply because you can automate a stupid amount of stuff.

Also, no mouse, just trackpad for when I'm forced to use it which is not that often even though I'm in webdev (vimium plugin for browsers MVP there).

Linux

Distrobox container

Code OSS

• clangd (always have to change compile commands path because $workspacefolder variable varies per machine even on the same project, it will just choose a subfolder sometimes)

• nrfconnect suite (it has some extra checks for .dts files and a nice GUI)

• embedded flash plugins/programs like jlink, Stmcubeprogrammer, etc..

Serial Studio

Logic 2 / Sigrok pulseview

Windows:

KATE + RemedyBG

Linux:

KATE + Seer
