Well, the heavy lifting is usually done by the Perl backend. So you cannot directly compare the performance between Perl and JS/TS services in this case. From my web dev experience so far I believe the language's execution environ

Yes, language servers provide that feature, too, and all language server clients replace „xref“ with their own implementation. „lsp-mode“ even provide some gui extensions to Emacs so it can display a hover window when there are several poss

It sounds a bit like you want „perspective.el“ (1). It allows you to define „virtual workspaces“ of buffers with individual window layouts. On each virtual desktop the standard buffer list is replaced with a shorter showing only buffers bel

If you think lsp-mode is too slow you can simulate „jump to definition“ using old-school „xref“ and „etags“ that comes with your Emacs. It creates a reverse index for you. Then you can put that in your git repo and add it to your .gitignore

Don’t think in terms of a „web app“. Instead, consider this: A block chain is basically just a distributed append-only database. Actually quite similar to how GIT works but with stronger security guarantees.

The total gas cost of a smart contract is determined by its running time that is the number of operations a smart contract needs to execute. So a large contract may actually be cheap to run if it never executes most of its code base.

Eglot does not have as many dependencies as lsp-mode and was designed to work closer with Emacs built-ins. Lsp-mode comes with many non-standard gui extensions — with some of them being quite cool, honestly — but they make the setup more co

Maybe you just haven’t found a killer feature for you yet that blew you away. Personally, I also can’t give you THE one use case that sold me on Emacs. It’s more the integration of a diverse set of tools together with its robustness that re

As soon as you pushed your branch to remote (which I tend to do for backup reasons especially after working hard on a solution) rebase only means trouble.

If you regularly need to review 10000 lines of code per PR your dev workflow is seriously broken. It‘s got nothing to do with git and its implementation‘s complexity. Sometimes features do require large changes. But usually you can break a

The way to get „git“ is to think about version management as a concept i.e. starting top down. It’s the implementation details of git that many developers get confused about. But they don’t matter. It’s similar to recursions: You don’t try

I don’t get why everybody wants to rebase their topic branches. Just use merge, come on. If you want a „clean“ commit history on main/master do a squashed merge into main at the end. This way we never had to force anything on the remot

On Windows and Macs Docker uses VMs ... I think the DEV community really needs a new definition of "containers" and one that is not backed by implementation details of Docker Linux.
