The biggest mistake I made when learning to code was trying to do it with vim.
Get an IDE, I suggest JetBrains.
I use vim everyday day as I work on Linux systems copying code and writing scripts and things but it should not be your primary development tool, certainly not for novices.
- BD103 3y agoJetbrains has good IDEs, but I've always disagreed with how much they abstract over "running" programs. Run configurations are great for projects where you iterate quickly, but they do not teach newcomers how to use the command line. I've seen this hurt new programmers in practice when they talk about "command line witchcraft," when really it's a very useful tool.
