Which anywhere decent IDE does feel like a native Mac app?
- leadingthenet 7y agoXCode. Nova is another new addition, that while not a fully fledged IDE, is a an amazing Mac experience (still in private beta, unfortunately: https://panic.com/nova/ https://panic.com/nova/).
- Cyberdog 7y agoHave you tried Nova yourself? Any ETA on when will it be available? I've been using Coda for a decade or so now and would really like to see another Mac-native code editor that solves some of Coda's jankiness while preserving its good things (most drastically, IMO, vertical splitting. Why do so many other editors not support that?).
- leadingthenet 7y agoI have, and genuinely the only thing I’d like to see included at this stage is vim-keybindings, which I realise aren’t important for the vast majority of people. Everything else is great, it looks and feels like a very high quality Cocoa app. You’ll be happy to know that Both horizontal and vertical splitting are included. While everything has been moved around compared to Coda, I think there haven’t really been any feature regressions (though I was never a heavy Coda user). Panic has done a great job, imo.

- vintagedave 7y agoRemObjects Fire, too. Visual Studio for Mac, better at least. The list of macOS IDEs that do not feel native is larger. The Jetbrains one, likely due to Java, are to me fairly horrendous. Love the language breadth and features, really dislike the lack of care for UI.
