A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

I should've used Zed for this. It was a perfect use case for their multi-buffer. Cursor kinda kept getting in the way with inaccurate suggestions.

anyone actually using intellij / webstorm?

i have for the past ~10y and it's been the best dev env i've ever tried. granted, i used it for java (be) + js (fe), but it was great for both. recently i've been testing vscode/cursor and they're good (especially cursor w claude), but it's far from what i was used to with jetbrains.

i’ve been using intellij for java and vscode for js and python. i find scripting languages work great in vscode, but intellij is the best ide for java, especially with its plugin support for testing and documentation. i just love the jacoco plugin.

i have never used intellij for fe. how’s your experience? what stands out?

all things tech. mostly optimistic. consistently guilty of facecrime. corporate slave

it just worked very well out of the box - code completion, refactoring, and all the little bits and pieces that don't stand out by themselves, but work together to create a delightful experience. the only thing that bothered me was that it was quite resource-heavy (but at least predictably - vs code would work smoothly 80% of the time and then go into absolute freeze frenzy the rest of the time).

This is what I do too, I prefer VSCode with extensions for JS, but IDEA is amazing for Java
