I don’t know about swipe for uppercase, but you can hold caps lock to toggle it.

It is the standard text editor after all.

I wanted to mention a new open source project Xed-Editor.

Additionally, I think the (virtual) keyboard you use is just as important as the editor (assuming you aren’t using a physical keyboard). I would recommend Unexpected Keyboard I have had a great experience with it.

I wanted to mention VSCodium as an alternative to VSCode, from their website “VSCodium is a community-driven, freely-licensed binary distribution of Microsoft’s editor VS Code.”

Basically it just removes telemetry/tracking.

I was reading the individual words for a while before I got it :D

Naming things kids is the hardest part of programming.

ARGV?

I use bash when I need to feel pain.

I use ruby whenever I need a script, it’s super easy to work with other commands in ruby IMO.

I love this, except for i i hate i.

As a solo developer, some things are out of scope like writing translations or ensuring full compliance with accessibility standards. What’s important is to have some knowledge of what things block progress in these areas. For example, not treating all strings like ASCII, or preferring native widgets/html elements as those better support accessiblity tools.

Accessibility and internationalization first. A lot of projects start without it and tack it on later. It’s so much better to have good roots and promote diversity and inclusivity from the start.

If you have a high end GPU, or lots of RAM you can run some good quality LLMs offline. I recommend watching Matthew Berman for tutorials (there are some showing paid hosting aswell).

I don’t know about you, but when I watch a video I’m not there to watch an ad.

Also don’t forget about the bad companies and scams (example: Established Titles).

Even though I don’t agree with some of the points, I would still hope to see discussion rather than unexplained downvotes.
