Inspired by tools like Grafana that I just discovered, what other cool open source tooling do you use?
Primary code editor: helix Graphical debugger and certain IDE features: vscodium Lots of open source language servers: clangd, rust-analyzer, perl-navigator, … Makefile to compile-comands.json: bear TUI file manager: yazi Better Grep:ripgrep Debugger: gdb(gnu debugger)
GNU Emacs!
Still climbing that learning curve after decades now, and the payoffs keep building.
It’s a real programmers’ environment. One you code to grow and mold to your needs.
It really is amazing for programming. I gave VS Code(ium) a chance as I hadnt used it in a while, and it feels like a frustrating black box compared to Emacs.
My favorite feature is Emacs being entirely self documenting, it makes it SO much easier to troubleshoot issues, make refinements, or just understand what’s going on in your environment.
Orginally I used Doom Emacs, but, although being wonderful to work in, wasn’t as easily understandable to me. I recommend anyone wanting to start an vanilla Emacs config starts here.
Exemplary youtube playlist by System Crafters that makes creating your emacs config from scratch not only more palatable, but arguably trivial. (At least up to the point he goes in the series).
Not exactly programming but recently discovered Logseq and I’m absolutely loving it. Been using it for work but I kinda want to start using it for personal stuff too.
I use Logseq for everything. I’ve found the more you throw into it the more useful it becomes since your touch points are so frequent and that gets you thinking through and exploring your graph more. I’ve yet to use any of the data query features but I’ve heard they’re incredibly powerful.
Whiteboards are just a fantastic way for modeling a topic or themes you know you want to turn into a deliverable when the how is uncertain.
It’s good, I been using it, but I’m heavy on my phone for my notes, and the android app has to improve a bit
I think org-roam in emacs is the same? I now never work on something without copying everything into an org-file and commenting it. And I am so happy when I want to do something I have done before and just be able to follow along my own notes.

plugin management · paq-nvim
better fennel support · tangerine.nvim
code highlighting · default vim regex, nvim-treesitter
lsp management · mason.nvim
…and even more open-source neovim plugins
shell · zshell
plugin management · antidote
plugins · belak/zsh-utils, olets/zsh-abbr, zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions, etc.

os · voidlinux
not programming related, but i though i’d mention
Now that I’ve finished the first draft of an article on setting up rootless Podman on Guix System, I’m using and building out a set of tools to support a new article covering an all Red Hat stack from inner loop to CI.
So far, it’s
I really want to like Podman Compose but since the very beginning it’s been noticeably tougher to work with than Docker Compose. I get that it’s because it’s just an extra script rather than a first party tool, but still.
For something simple that just needs a bind mount like
services: app: build: context: . target: base volumes: - ./debaser_studio:/opt/app-root/src/debaser_studio/debaser_studio ports: - "3000:3000" - "8000:8000" user: default
I haven’t found any issues. Do you have more complex needs?
I wish podman or docker had an IPFS registry. When dockerhub or quay decide to be slow for whatever reason, then all you can do is sit and wait. With IPFS it would be possible to pull from multiple hosts and even mirror images.

Neovim with the LunarVim config.

LunarVim is great but I really think its better to make your own config and spend the initial investment of getting that set up.
You’ll understand the editor better and because of that can configure it to exactly how you want, and integrate things you regularly use into, and also learn some Lua along the way.

I recently switched from regular Vim to Neovim, using LazyVim config.

I’ve been trying it but the LSP refuses to work. It’s supposed to be work out of the box, but it just doesn’t. It’s better than vim, but still distant from any IDE I’ve used. Feels like going back to the dark ages (vim is babylonian times and nano is stone age).

Always tried to try neovim but felt kinda overwhelmed since I was always a jetbrains/vscode kind of guy. Never knew there were pre-configured setups. I’ll give this one a try, thanks!

Honestly, you are better off by sticking with Jetbrains/Code and using their vim keybindings. If you really enjoy spending hours configuring vim to do what the others do out of the box, then go for it. Otherwise just use vim keybindings everywhere.
