Thanks for that. I have somehow never used Gitlab myself but I have wondered if CI is always so annoying. GitHub actions are powerful imo, however their documentation is trash and there are many annoyances involved with using them. Typically if I think setting up a new GHA will take an hour, it ends up taking me a day to figure out. Slow, confusing, and poorly designed version of something that could be great. Maybe someday I’ll get to use Gitlab…
It always surprises me how complicated some of the editor tooling sounds in threads like this. Obviously once you learn how to use these things they are powerful, but how do people have the patience to deal with all of that in the beginning? This is coming from a guy who writes scripts constantly to avoid doing tedious, error-prone things.
Also I keep seeing people say vscode is slow. One of the reasons I switched to it is that it’s insanely fast compared to other editors I used (even those with far-inferior featuresets) 🤷♂️
