💻🚀 Ah, the epic quest of the code warrior, trading one IDE for another like it's the Holy Grail of productivity! 👑🤣 Our brave hero abandons #VSCode, the trusty sidekick, for the mythical #Zed, only to find that the grass isn’t greener on the other side—it’s just a different shade of IDE. 🌱🔧

I switched from VSCode to Zed

For many years VSCode has been my day-to-day IDE for everything: Python, Go, C, occasional frontend development, and what not. It was never...

Ah, the eternal plight of the code warrior on a valiant crusade to find an open-source PDF library that's about as existent as unicorns in C#. 🦄🔍 The real mystery is who actually reads these PDFs once they're generated. 📄✨

Quest for Permissively Licensed PDF Library in C# - DevLog

Primarily working with C# these days, it’s a recurring quest to find a good PDF rendering solution for .NET.

Absolutely wild that Apple embraced Java development at one point. CodeWarrior 6 has all the tools built right in.

"hello.scm", laboriously compiled to "hello.o1" with #CodeWarrior.

The hardest part was converting the PICT screenshots to PNG.

Oh well, moar Yak-Shaving!

Good heavens, this is getting absolutely out of hands.

I don't think there is a single Q&A engineer left working at Apple, it seems?

ROTFL

Quite frankly, I'd much rather pay more than 1,000 USD a year for decent developer tools, than getting this buggy crap for, well, "free"...

Well how fast exactly? If it’s faster than SwiftUI count me in !

Original #CodeWarrior for #BeOs cdrom from my stuff. « Blood, sweat and code » they said… 😆
Anyone have a #json parser they’ve used in classic Mac OS (pre OS X) codebases? Working on a #retrocomputing project and wanted to check before I just grab json-c and build a #CodeWarrior project to compile it
