Helix is nice, speaking of which.

[-] lonesomeCat@lemmy.ml 18 points 2 months ago

I believe upvoting isn't enough

Helix ROCKS

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah baby! 👊

[-] Arkhive@piefed.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Shout out helix!! Big fan!

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

🧬❤️ Yeah!

[-] EffortlessGrace@piefed.social 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Helix for terminal has been fantastic; I like GUIs so for me Zed is my "S-Tier".

Yes, Zed allows you to turn off the Agentic LLM integration off in settings.json:

{
  "disable_ai": true
}

You are ruining the velocity! How are they supposed to tell shareholders they're delivering faster than humans, if they keep getting bogged down with issues!? Everyone, stop opening issues!

I thought that was a CVS receipt

[-] raman_klogius@ani.social 11 points 2 months ago

VSC and CVS are anagrams of each other after all

[-] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 28 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

You know, It's time I play with VSCodium again.
I used it for a long time but ended up having issues with the SSH plugin and the Python support that forced me to go back to regular VSCode. But that was so long ago they surely fixed it by now...

[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 43 points 2 months ago

Just be aware MS did the MS thing of not permitting some plugins to work on non vscode installations like the corporate dicks they are.

[-] mizule@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 months ago

they do? i always just downloaded the .vsix file and installed manually that way.

i'm fairly certain there's also a patch to enable the marketplace properly on vscodium. i think i used it when i still used arch.

[-] Black616Angel@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 months ago

Not all addons allow you to download a vsix though.

[-] xtools@programming.dev 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

true for eg MS' C++ extensions or copilot - they actively block installing and running it on codium, based on some internal "app name" config of the IDE.

there's a workaround for that though. install both codium and vsc, install extensions on vsc, symlink the ".vscode" folder to ". vscode-oss", and edit codium's app info json (forgot filename) to match vsc's (mainly the "app name").

last step needs to be done after each update, but can applied with a script, happy to share if anyone needs it. Just make sure the installed codium- and vsc versions match.

what did you use instead, especially for Python?

I asked in a random thread about linux IDEs, thinking there'd be several to the level of VSCode and didn't find anything recommended that was particularly new, and ended up using pulsar for taking notes (it keeps sessions with "unsaved" files somewhere so I just dump stuff into there, manages searches of file contents from certain folders like VS code) and VS Codium for development (it has ctrl+click to find usages/takes to declerations) , but I haven't gotten python integration working on there, and would like to try something new out.

I don't want to use Kate or NeoVim since I want a GUI and integration with "compilers"/interpreters by using buttons and such, but I haven't found anything that doesn't seem like its from the late 90s early 00s, which doesn't work with my shitty eyes and 1080 displays.

[-] Liketearsinrain@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

PyCharm? Spacemacs ? Both work fine as Python IDEs (so can neovim, but it does't have a GUI)

[-] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 3 points 2 months ago

Not who you're asking, but weighing in anyways. I use VSCodium for C# and Python development on Linux. Only extensions I needed was ms-python.python, ms-python.debugpy, and I use ms-python.vscode-python-envs

For c# it's dotrush only.

All works. Step through debugging all works, no issues.

vscodium is pretty toothless compared to the first-party vscode builds. i forget the exact details, i think i was having issues with the dev container plugins not working at all.

i've been using zed.dev with all of the AI features turned off and its been nice. it's probably a matter of time before they enshittify too, but for now i'm enjoying it.

[-] Scrath@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

Don't ask me how it's named but I believe there was a fork of the project relatively recently in reaction due to some AI stuff they did.

The fork has all AI features scrubbed out

Practically speaking, why would you pick Gram over Zed? I mean actual advantages

Didn't know all of them, thanks for sharing! Also stumbled upon Helix, which looks pretty neat

Never had this issue with neovim :3

[-] bss03@infosec.pub 6 points 2 months ago

You might in the future. Both vim and neovim are accepting genAI code contributions. There's a vim-classic fork around, but it is "rolled back" to pre-vimscript9.

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 months ago

showing off your 12k monitor, eh?

[-] onlinepersona@programming.dev 14 points 2 months ago

Image gone 🤕 Did Microslop slopify VSCode?

[-] Dumhuvud@programming.dev 7 points 2 months ago

The image isn't gone, that hosting server just flat out refuses connections from certain IPs. See if this works for you - https://i.imgur.com/ReCjF8k.jpeg. I've heard that Imgur is not accessible in the UK, but Lemmy doesn't let me upload it because it's "too tall".

Did Microslop slopify VSCode?

A long time ago.

[-] onlinepersona@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago

Thanks. I had to use a VPN. No idea why it's banning my IP. There can't be too many people in this building using the fediverse.

[-] chunes@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

I never once understood why people want to write code in a browser that isn't even the same instance as the one they likely already have open. I can't understand the mindset of a person who wants JavaScript to power the tools they use. Is it because they hate their hardware? Or the environment?

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 35 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Because it's a well-made, useful, simple but extensible program? I really don't care if it's "a browser" (it's not, just part of one). And it being not just a tab in my existing browser lets it do critical IDE things like write files and open a terminal (and be easier to find and differentiate from my research, product management, and testing tabs).

[-] PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

I hate the environment, that's why I use vscode. After a long day outside, rolling coal on my 6x6 and littering out in nature, I come home and relax by turning on vscode and let it idle as I throw old tires in the fireplace. If you hate the environment like I do, use vscode.

[-] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

IDE in general are not that good.

VSCode has a lot of of expansions, enabling a developer to stay in the same environment for any language they code in.

So if you have a multi-language setup, you can do everything in the same IDE.

I work with embedded firmware, and let me tell you that VSCode is miles ahead from manufacturer tools.

I personally don't use VSCode because microcontroller manufacturer tools usually come with a repeatable easy to install environment, so I can easily handoff the projects to my clients.

But if you ship code and don't have to ship the environment, VSCode is a good allrounder that can do pretty much anything.

With that said, use VSCodium instead. At least, it removes the analytics from the IDE.

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

I started with Visual Studio at work, and I just love VSCode by comparison, idk why but it feels so much easier to work with after I got the hang of it.

Vscode release notes used to be exciting. Now it’s 70% ”Assistant” improvements. Then you finally get to the next chapter and it’s all like

Terminal

  • Added terminal support for Assistant…
[-] thoughtfuldragon@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 months ago

The red color in the syntax highlighting is the most annoying for me

[-] Randelung@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Your screenshot failed. Half way through it starts repeating. See the worst tickets in there: "Stopped working".

[-] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Thats pretty impressive it it was that bad it generated that many reports.

Id only expect to see that in a alpha channel for those excited to try something new.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

Kate has a LSP plugin.

[-] aliser@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

soo when are we getting de-slopified vs code fork?

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

How I can learn???????????
