Ask HN: Terminal Only Code Env?
Curious if anyone works exclusively on the terminal without gui applications? If so, what does your setup look like? What are best tips?
- lijunhao 2y agox-cmd contains a lot of modern shell and binary tools in terminal. You can check it out. There is a lot of demos in the official website.
- gregjor 2y agoYes, have done it for years, since terminal was the only option. I use vim with a few plugins, and the usual CLI tools: grep, ripgrep, git, ctags, screen, fuzzy finder. I write command line utilities in Go. My setup is an iPad Pro with Blink shell.
- itsdanweston 2y agoYeah, the main tools I use are: - Alacritty with ZSH for my terminal - Neovim as my IDE - TMUX for multiplexing (different terminal windows/panes/etc) - Colima so I don't have to use Docker Desktop Everything else is just the standard CLI tool, like git, docker, etc. My workflow is that I open a new TMUX session per project, use Neovim to edit the code and then commit with git. Neovim has plugins for things like debugging, database access, and basically anything you could possibly need.
- drKarl 2y agoI think it's important to mention that when using Neovim as an IDE the secret sauce is LSP. Search in Google or YouTube Neovim as an IDE for some help setting everything up
- lordkrandel 2y agoI use neovim as a text editor, no LSP, my python CLI tools for our company's CI, ripgrep, pdb and that's it. Yes, you can do this in 2024.
