There is a recent post about the new JetBrains Fleet IDE, but of course it is sadly not open source.
What is your favourite IDE? (Or compiler, language, framework, anything: just share your experience and knowledge)
I’ll start:
- PHP: Geany
- Python: Thonny
- Pascal/Delphi: Lazarus
- C/C++: wxDev-C++, and Code::Blocks
- C#: MonoDevelop, (before it was SharpDevelop)
- Go: LiteIDE X
I least-hate VS Code. I most-hate Visual Studio, followed closely by everything else.
But if I wanted to torture a resurrected Adolf Hitler forced to write code as punishment, I think I might have him use Delphi 7 on Windows 10. If somehow he ever got used to it, there are several Delphi report plugins we could foist on him to crank the agony up a few quadrillionfold. Delphi is so hellish it belongs on no spectrum of best-to-worst IDEs. It sits beyond the rest. Out past the rest of the visible universe, in the cold dark, a million degrees below absolute zero.
