Hi! web dev here. It’s time to change your setup ever so slightly with VSCodium, and electerm too optionally: vscodium.comgithub.com/electerm/electerm

I usually install all my setups in PopOS or a server I’m developing on: github.com/gnubyte/debian-setup/blob/…/setup.sh

Then install Insomnia.rest, VSCodium, and finally electerm.

Basically I’ll program in nodeJS, BunJS, or python.

Then I’ll ask chatGPT via Rubberduck (link below) to generate a docker and docker compose live mount for my dependencies of my frontend and backends. Then I begin to iterate over my work.

github.com/rubberduck-ai/rubberduck-vscode

My latest flow is basically to start with chatGPT, write a four paragraph description of what I want, have it save me about five hours of boiler plate nonsense, and then disconnect from chatGPT to do the advance stuff like handle security, data structure relationships, etc. Sometimes I go back to chatGPT for how an algorithm should be implemented for efficiency inside a short snippet, then apply it again to my code. There was some great bloom filter work it was able to help me with.

Other stuff I’ve been trying is like podman and I’m interested lately in Jenkins to do builds since I realized I have too many projects that build and work a particular way, I can’t Shepard them all by hand. With that will likely come unit testing, both hopefully assisted by AI to cut down on time. I’d like to reinvest that time on hankerrank and frontend masters to start transitioning to something like rust.
