To be honest, coming from the Visual Studio world, Elixir development on Windows feels like going 10 years back in time ![]()
To say that “just use VIM” (as I’ve seen people say in other places) is kind of, well, unenlightened…
It’s 2019, as a productive developer you expect that things like go to/peek definition, rename functions, refactoring, extract code to methods, intellisense/autocomplete with documentation, code analysis etc etc.
I’m not saying that we need to have AI-enabled suggestions (like in VS), but there really “needs” to be better cross-platform IDE support nowadays.
Sure, if I have some time over I could try enhance the Windows experience for Elixir, but I would need some help through the journey. Mostly because I’ve never really written Erlang/Elixir for production ![]()
Cross-platform means also Windows.
Well, my rant is over. Let’s get everyone happy!
