I used to think GitHub Codespaces would help popularise Gitpod but now realize it is the other way around. Gitpod is currently permitted to exist in the Visual Studio Code ecosystem to popularise GitHub Codespaces, and Microsoft can step in at any moment to create legal crises that strategically divide the market from a business perspective because, like Apple and their AppStore: it is their ecosystem that they control and they are in absolute control.
well, Jetbrains are pretty high quality products though, I don’t mind paying their price if I have to pay for IDE for my personal work. I think even the corp level license pricing is not too bad compare to VS.
My company has a jetbrains license and I honestly run into so many problems with it. Still haven’t found an all-around IDE that I want to stick to.
Maybe give Lapce a shot, it’s still in it’s infancy, but it’s pretty slick and very responsive.
Good to know, thanks!
Maybe I am not advance users so I don’t usually run into issues that much. Things I use (for C++):
Nah, probably just due to different languages I’d guess. I’ve mostly had issues with it creating Python virtual envs, I always have to manually create one because it just breaks. There’s a bug on the jetbrains tracker that’s been open for this for more than a year. The run config doesn’t respect environment variables, despite having a box for it. And I have constant problems with their remote development feature, though I know that’s in beta. Just really disappointing honestly. I hate when my IDE gets in the way of development.
