Reading that makes me so happy to just have to open QtCreator, hit "new project" and get rolling

  You can do that with nodejs too, e.g. edit package.json and main.js in vscode, hit hotkey to npm install hit hotkey to run node ./main.js. This is what I'm doing at the day job. What I'm trying to do there is to have a client and server in the same ./src, hot-reloaded module-wise on "save" only when a relevant part changes, and vscode to typecheck both at the same time. The language similarity is also a goal. It's a little more than just a traditional lazy-compile-restart cycle. Non-monorepo non-ts-only guys do not experience my issues, because they only have one environment per project (or per src-<target>), and don't try to make their build configs incompatible with other parts of a build system. I tried to push it as far as it could go to evaluate the state of things for writing non-standard slightly different web apps. To make a ts-react app, they just use CRA, for a backend they just use node main.js. But anyway this shows how interdependent this ecosystem is, instead of being full of orthogonal possibilities.

  I still miss being able to do that with Flash.
