Canine Blues Arooo posted:Is it? I remember last time I used it, I basically gave it all of 20 minutes before I realized that I couldn't just see references to methods, and I basically just wrote it off completely when I couldn't F12 to a definition. Besides that, managing a project of any scope seems to be nightmare fuel inspired by Python's worst tendencies. Maybe this has been addressed, but goddamn, I felt a lot like I was in Notepad++ and less like I was in an IDE. what language? i suspect either the support for it was immature when you tried it or there was an extension you needed to install (or both)

Gentle Autist posted:Language support is usually based on installing modules. Python was definitely well supported 2+ years ago, and it would have understood python symbols so you could do intellisesne stuff, but you woulda had to install the module and maybe do some light janitoring to get it all going yeah, that's been my experience. sometimes it takes a little tweaking, but i've gotten vscode to support python, ruby, javascript/typescript, elixir, php, and c although... quote:VS is really nice too, no shade from me there i still use vs on occasion because there's no fuckin way i want to do .net stuff in anything else

idk, maybe that poo poo'll get better, but my experience has been that lsp and domain-specific intellisense is way more useful than ai-based helpers like copilot or whatever

seriously, in the few projects where i tried copilot, it made terrible suggestions

Shaggar posted:yeah everything i saw wrt copilot was trash which makes the VS stuff even more surprising. i imagine that using a real language like c# instead of a toy p-lang helps a bunch. c# is thoroughly defined. vs integrates with it absolutely completely. we can fight about how well vscode does the same thing with other languages, on some levels it's p good, but one thing i'll absolutely scream is that copilot tries to use ai to reach that level of understanding with p-langs and fails miserably

there's something bad to be said about a tool that suggests code that fails to compile, compared to a tool that at the very least knows not to suggest code that fails to compile

chaosbreather posted:more than this – we have to win work, right, with competing proposals. typescript has a ton of factors – all those loving words i wrote – that you can just use to tear any other non-typescript proposal apart, it's like a nuke. you can only fight it with other teams doing it faster or better. this is a weird argument. i guess you mean, if you're making a greenfield app, nothing else but typescript makes sense? eh, never mind. this conversation is weird. you're weird.
