"fun to write" give them IDE-driven-developers a text editor and see how much "fun" it is.
- detaro 6y ago"Don't let them use the appropriate/preferred tool for the job and see how much fun it is" is a fairly nonsensical proposal for pretty much every profession.
- dmingod666 6y agoI can't think of one other major programming language that relies so heavily on the IDE to do the development work, can you?
- eurasiantiger 6y agoOOPHP.
- dmingod666 6y agololz! had to google that one.
- detaro 6y agoLabVIEW ;) More seriously, IDEs exist and work, so if people are productive with them, what does "but you'd be less productive if you didn't have your IDE!" gain us? C++ is a bit less verbose, but still the wide majority of devs uses an IDE with it because it does useful things. Programmers of Lisp etc use editors that have tools to edit Lisp files better. etc. I get not liking the existing options as a matter of personal taste, but that's different.
- slver 6y agoLet's assume it is. So what?
- panzerboy 6y agoC#
- metaltyphoon 6y agoThat’s not even remotely true
- gher-shyu3i 5y agoAny non-trivial program will require an IDE, regardless of language.
