- MobiusHorizons 2y agoLike what? That after all was my original question.
- freedomben 2y agoI'm a die-hard nvim/tmux/mosh user so take this with a grain of salt, but to answer your question, many people use their IDEs as project dashboards. For example (depending on the project/ecosystem): 1. GUI editor (for UI) 2. Debugging (as in standard debugging tools like breakpoints, REPLs, etc) 3. Building the project, and build management 4. A terminal emulator 5. A container orchestrator manager (or as I like to call it, an orchestrator orchestrator) Personally I think those tools are better separted from the IDE, but there is a real convenience in having them integrated.
