I use vscode for my personal projects (c++ and a fully open source stack, compiling for both Linux and Windows).

I’m using the proprietary version of vscode (via the aur) for the plugin repository, but I’ve always envied the open source version…

Are there any tools that have made you excited?

Bonus points if they have some support for compiling with MSVC (or if you can convince me to ditch it for something else).

    Helix is awesome. I’ve spent many hours these passed months configuring both Sway and Helix to my liking, and it has become joyous to use them together. I prefer Helix’s default configs to vim’s. Still got to use Vim motions a lot though, in Obsidian etc. Similar in many aspects, but there are many small things Helix does which I find more logical. u for undo and U for redo. Small things.
