I write code for a company worth hundreds of millions every day, with a world-class user rating. I don't use the command line at all.
I CAN use the command line. I know very well how to do it. I have done it for decades. But when I program for iOS, I don't need it. The tooling is good enough that I never need to. So I don't.
There's no reason this couldn't be the case for other environment too. There's nothing magical about iOS other than that Apple actually values developer convenience and put the effort in that others are unwilling to do.

- imtringued 6y agoYou can just start up Eclipse or Visual Studio (the original) and have the exact same experience. That's how I started with Java and zero Linux knowledge. What you are really complaining about is the fact that nobody is there to shout in your face that these options exist.
- user-the-name 6y agoCan you do that for node.js, like the person in the linked article wants to use?
