Now I'm wondering who uses what development tools. I mostly use Qt Creator myself - I chose it because of its good integration with C++ and Qt projects, and I'm just used to it. On Linux I use Qt Creator, and on Windows I use Visual Studio.
I wonder what others use? VSCode, Vim, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDE, Emacs, Sublime or something more rare?- Why did you decide to use them specifically?
- What do you like or annoy you about it?
- How usable is it in real work?

For debugging I sometimes fall back to vscode. -
I use Zed
Yeah the agentic ai feature is nice and all but I don’t use it much.
However the whole speed of it and the layout of the ui is very close to my heart eg.: native remote server connection or you can hide stuff away to be distraction free.
Tldr.: feels nice, looks niceschrieb am 8. Juni 2025, 17:42 zuletzt editiert vonInteresting, never heard of it before but looks promising, I should try it. I don't care much for AI features, but I'm not against it either, especially if I can use locally hosted models, and it seems Zed supports ollama natively, so that fits the bill.
Coming from vscode, one of the features I use a lot is devcontainers, does Zed support something similar?

Helix, it’s like vim but with sane defaults.

VS Code is a wildcard that I use more as a text editor than an IDE.

Mostly vscodium with a pinned c/++ plugin 'cos M$ eee'd it. It's a fairly decent IDE.
And vim. -
