I'm a Python developer, and I've been worried about upgrading to MacOS Sierra, after hearing a few anecdotes about bugs, etc.
Are you a coder, and have you noticed any things that you wish they'd fix; things that hamper you as a coder?
I love El Capitan, esp how they've finally absolutely perfected full screen mode / swipe to switch, half-screen, etc. at this point. Is that all still great?
- danpalmer 10y agoI use macOS Sierra on my old Macbook Pro and I've had no Python development issues. I'm using a fairly standard setup with Python versions from Homebrew and virtualenvs.
- mu_killnine 10y agoI've been running Sierra for the last month or so and think it's on par with prior macOS releases. There's been no standout feature that's wowed me, but there haven't been outstanding bugs driving me crazy either. Since I don't use the new Siri integration, I couldn't tell you a single difference between this and El Cap (maybe dark mode?) I'm a .net developer running vs code and docker most of the time, for reference. I'm running on a late '13 rMBP.
- rbanffy 10y agoRunning Python and virtualenv, using Python 2.7 and 3.5 and Macports. No issues whatsoever.
- guitarbill 10y agoI use the Homebrew Python2 and 3, and have had no issues. AFAIK not using the Apple Python helps. I actually jumped from Mountain Lion to Sierra and couldn't be happier software-wise.
