Curious. I'm a smoker and use my nicotine cravings as a pomodoro clock but was looking to find a good Mac and iOS app. Any suggestions? #DevDiscuss

In a lot of ways Vim and Emacs seem this way to me sometimes #DevDiscuss

Where do you see the evolution of developer tools going? Which ones seem to be a vision of the future? #DevDiscuss

I see the primary players for writing code sticking around with maybe a couple others popping in there with more intuitive (or gimmicky, who knows) features on the way. Which will likely just feed into the "my editor is better than yours" war. #devdiscuss

It's the Teletype of @AtomEditor which will be the next thing on how you collaborate with your colleagues while programming. #DevDiscuss

bash, vim, tmux. my main laptop is Gentoo and servers are FreeBSD, so ZFS Jails and Dtrace. Firefox is amazing! Elixir and Erlang. OpenSSH is a must. what makes me work really fast is WindowMaker and it's flexibility. also make and sh for automation. #DevDiscuss

My editor jam is NeoVim with vim-plug over Tmux executed via Fish run via iTerm2 with vim-airline to make it pretty. I can’t live without Dash (especially with TLDR pages) and Alfred workflows. Also use Text Expander, Trello, and Chrome with Toby to manage tabs. #DevDiscuss

gatlingxyz Jan 9 @ 9:51 PM EST

Toby! That's my new way of managing tabs. Otherwise, I'd still have 60 up from the past two months. #DevDiscuss

Better support for 1) Containerized development -- https://t.co/R3CtbgOYbr 2) WYSIWYG style development -- https://t.co/eacKwipaQX 3) Snippet-based programming #devdiscuss

Was looking at an application recently where the team used jira so I started to look at it. Any #gamedev use this in your toolset? It looks awesome but what's your experiences? #DevDiscuss

kimberlypilbeam Jan 9 @ 9:51 PM EST

Package managers are 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Save a lot of headaches. Tools are there to make our lives easier. The future will be devs actually utilizing the tools in their tool belt instead of reinventing the wheel. 😂🙄 #devdiscuss

live pair programming, greater iterations of language features e.g, C# 7.1,7.2, etc, more unit testing made easier. #DevDiscuss

Regarding your development environment, if you’re not using an Amiga then you’re doing it wrong. 😁#DevDiscuss

I don't know much about Web Assembly (WASM) except for some high-level stuff, but it will be a game changer for applications on the web. Being able to write more performant code for parts of your app with different languages. 🔥 https://t.co/l9o6EJfQAk #devdiscuss
