Hey fellow fanatics!
After a few years of working with software, I finally decided to learn to code. I am LOVING IT so far.
I was wondering who works as a developer or knows how to code?
What tools do you to use to code? What resources?
mafia isn't coding.You need a computer and a keyboard. Type some gibberish in, and boom, code!
I do a lot of embedded systems work. I work mostly in C and then MATLAB/Simulink. For anything outside of MATLAB/Simulink, I use Visual Studio Code. As others have said VS Code can pretty much do anything you need it to.Hey fellow fanatics!

Other than the embedded systems, I have used Java, SQL, Javascript, and HTML (this is not coding). I am trying to decide which language to learn to make apps that can be easily put on iOS and Android.
Out of curiosity, what are you trying to program?
I am not trying to program anything just yet. I am just trying to learn some languages so when ideas come to mind, I can build something quick to test.
The closest I cone to coding is PowerShell scripting. I do manipulate variables, API object models and such, but I feel that it still doesn’t count as coding. I just use the PS ISE built-in to Windows for a development environment.
I use Eclipse all the time but a company forcing you to use it over IntelliJ are idiots20-odd years of Java and html/javascript/ whatever trendy front-end framework is hot using IntelliJ IDEA. I love IntelliJ so much I pay for it myself. The company I work for wants me to use Eclipse and VSC. I can do everything, including git pull/pushes and some database work in IntelliJ. It is also Android Studio.

Yes but a company not paying for licenses is a red flagIsn't Eclipse free and IntelliJ like $600 a year per user? Commercial licensing of course

He said he’s paying for IntelliJ. If he can use it with the company not having to charge I don’t see the issue.But maybe that's why he's forced to use Eclipse because they don't want to pay licensing
