- sourishkrout 4y agoRunme's co-creator here, would you rather have it as a standalone web app? Or in other words, what VS Code alternative?
- patrick451 4y agoI'd take just a shell script. If all this does is run commands from a readme to get bootstrapped, I don't understand why I need to get an IDE involved.
- sourishkrout 4y agothat's totally fair. there are plenty of cases where a shell script will just do. however, we found that for runbook-like documentation it's elegant to interlace narrative and commands per step to incrementally work through the steps to completion. the IDE could, for an instance, set you up with configuration and credentials required and provide a richer way to display intermediate results. scripts always work well until you share them. in a Bring-Your-Own-Device world it's easier said than done. however, totally depends on the situation and in a lot of cases a script file will work just fine. hope this sheds some light on it, not trying to convince you that an IDE is required.
- itomato 4y agoI don’t use an IDE and don’t believe an IDE is the right environment for anything other than docs relevant to the work done in the IDE. It’s just context-sensitive help at that point.
