Most importantly stop watching YT videos and work with what you got.

[@RadixSort3]

That's worst comment on YT. I have learned so much on YT, let it be .net, react or home improvement projects.

I always try to internalize new concepts, shortcuts or new libraries afap... when I'm able to imagine what I want to do and know what I have to write for that almost immediately, I'm in the flow, I love this feeling

I enjoyed Max's Tutorials on Laravel, it helped me land my first job. Good job Max! 🔥

[@chinmayraichur8984]

Where can I find these tutorials on Laravel? Can you please provide the links to it?

I joined a project at work where they were developing a backend for around 3 years using a very inefficient dev environment. They were locked into using an extremely slow system which obviously made developing their api very cumbersome. The first thing I did when I joined the project was to set up a very simple dev environment which allowed devs to circumvent this very slow system, so now doing dev work is much faster and much more productive. It's surprising that they spent 3 years being held back by their dev environment and just goes to show that your initial set up is very important to get right. Again, getting the basics right with simple solutions makes such a big difference to productivity.

Hey Max, can you do a video sharing your IDE shortcuts?

[@adrian-4767]

Academind when are you going to release a NestJS course? What date approximately? We (your students) really need it.

Do you have any laptop you aren't using?

[@wag6181]

tldr: - Invest in good hardware, you must not wait for things in your machine (AI is another story hehe) - one external monitor is enough but it should be a big monitor - Use default terminal, dont do fancy optmizations - Choose a theme for your code editor and stick with this theme. - Learn shortcuts provided by your code editor - It is not a problem if you use mouse, but shortcuts are better and quicker.

crazy...

[@СэрШпинат]

you gotta be honest with yourself and admit that spending too much time too often optimizing your working environment is just a form of procrastination. respect the defaults provided by your IDE. Those defaults are usually the way to go rather than someone's third party themes or plugins. Also consider using minimalistic theme. for me I am using a light selenized theme with just three colors - blue (functions), cyan (strings), magneta (html tags). everything else is just black with keywords being bold. thats it. who knows, maybe light and minimal is good for you, cuz i find too much syntax highlighting distracting (like rainbow unicorn vomit with skittles). Just make sure not using dark themes in light room and light themes in dark room.

Yeah, I've been spending a lot of time too deep diving to find the suitability Dev Environment setup for me. I experimented with different dark themes, but ultimately decided the default theme worked best for me. 🤣🤣

[@ulfdellbrugge827]

I like your content quite a lot. Not this one though. Optimizing stuff and then resetting to factory defaults can be a useful experiment. I am now very happy with prettier-eslint in vscode, but I stumbled over it while fooling around. And I don't know compared to the time I loose scrolling linkedin for example .. I don't know. Just saying.

My company provides to us the Resharper productivity tool. I am 3x faster utilizing this tool. I've trained my fellow developers on this tool. It makes me sad that a lot of these developers don't even take the time to integrate this tool into their workflow. Some people just don't want to level up. And they gripe that the don't have enough time to complete their work. And they think I am super smart because I just get things done. Ironic.

Are there similar tools for typescript

[@Nojo524]

@@tuananhdo1870 I’ve only used Resharper since I’m on Visual Studio. Even resharper has limited JS/TS support since TS keeps growing insanely sophisticated; in a good way:). I don’t think the resharper team can catch up.

@@tuananhdo1870 I only use resharper since I’m on visual Studio. Resharper only has limited typescript support since they suspended further development in this area.

It is funny people are worried of my time so much, reminds me of banks and other who worry of my money. Neither money nor time of mine is anyone's business.

[@j.r.r.tolkien8724]

For me it's the opposite. If you don't use the mouse you're not a real developer. You clearly spent too much time configure an outdated code editor therefore you're not a serious developer.
