Developer Must Haves
- tptacek 17y agoI prefer Safari's debugging and Web Inspector tools to Firebug at this point.
- Pistos2 17y agoI find myself using Chrome over Firebug more and more these days.
- blasdel 17y agoChrome uses Safari's Web Inspector directly on all platforms. It's a little buggier than it is in Safari, but it's nowhere near as bad as Firebug when it comes to crashy freakouts. Now that Chrome works great on Linux I basically never have to suffer Firefox. The way Mozilla promoted their useless "Web Developer Toolbar" and ignored Firebug for years was always a great disappointment to me.
- aaronblohowiak 17y agoContent-free list of tools. Nothing new or explained.
- adrianwaj 17y agoThat doesn't mean it's not useful :) It's also by JQuery devs. A Ask HN post on dev tools mightn't have got any upvotes or comments: that was my thinking -- at least here there's something to work off.
- rmason 17y agoI'm actually going to give the tab generator a try, looked pretty nice.
- Locke1689 17y agoVim, cc, gdb, autotools, unix ;)
- jamesbritt 17y ago"I couldn't find a good (free) text editor for MAC." Have to wonder why vim or emacs were not considered, or not considered good, but TextMate and Netbeans are viable choices for text editors.
