Is anyone here NOT using Java also running Jetbrains IDEs? Which and for what?

Edit: JET

I've been using Rider for C# for years, it's light years ahead of Visual Studio. Although, I feel like it got overwhelmingly bloated in the last few years.

There is no better IDE for PHP than PHPStorm from Jetbrains

I use their Rider IDE for DotNet development.

Must be, only 3 billion devices run java, so if you want to continue growing, you have to invest in something else.

I don’t understand your comment.

For years, the java installer would say "3 billion devices run java", and the number never changed from 3 billion for years, like almost a decade. So the joke is that there was, is, and always will be exactly 3 billion devices that run java. https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/spiceworks/original/4X/5/1/d/51d190fa52d4fc75d5c64ca6cf6892380efbbf21.jpeg

@kibblebits @nemeski PyCharm, CLion, Android Studio and RustRover. I wish they had something to replace Xcode too.

Oh amen, I hate Xcode. I appreciate the ease with working with devices and the App Store, but doing any actual work inside it sucks.

@kibblebits it’s such a primitive IDE and lacks so much that we take for granted nowadays. It makes running on devices easy and handles the overly complex certificate handling easier, but that’s it. The debugger is atrocious, no refactoring, bad code editing, no sane tabs, slow…

@kibblebits Is Netbrains a mashup of Netbeans and Jetbrains? Where can I try it?

kibblebits@quokk.au · 1 pts · 91d

Lmfao. I mean Jetbrains. I had a hard time with autocomplete and I guess by the time I got it to stop correcting me I read Netbrains as the right word 🤦‍♂️

RustRover. AI is turned off. Love it. Though I'm somewhat OK with NeoVIM keystrokes, I fear it will take a lot of time to get to the level of comfort in debugging, auto complete, run configurations, import management, linting etc. I have with RustRover.
