Better yet beat the 3 senior NTG people and you can get a promotion (that will keep my from paying any pay increases). @art_of_shred @scottalanmiller and I one team.

@Minion-Queen Game of my choice? I'll do you 3 vs me in WarThunder

@creayt Get a real IDE! Basically anything by JetBrains is great, what language is that though? Is that some sort of templating within PHP? If so PhpStorm is the way to go
-
Jetbrains fan here too.
-
@scottalanmiller Yeah in house we use RubyMine, PhpStorm, and WebStorm. All awesome and increased productivity a lot.

I actually bought licenses for all 3 of those like a year ago hahaha. I haven't really made time to check them out, and I don't think JetBrains makes anything that supports my backend glue ( Node and ColdFusion ). Sublime Text is pretty amazing though.
-
@creayt Oh, I did consider maybe that was CF, but then I thought "well, maybe not" because it's hard to read in the pic. CF though, come on man, modernise!
Edit: WebStorm does node.js well, that's what we use it for.

That's one of my favorite text editors. But I like the price of Notepad++ better haha.

What do you mean? ColdFusion is more cutting edge than PHP and Ruby combined in a lot of ways. I mean it has baked in WebSocket support bruh. A new version was released less than a year ago, the next version is under heavy development, and an update was released less than a month ago. Adobe pushes self-installing updates out over the air which keep it "modern" on a monthly basis. I'm guessing you don't really know much about it

Ah, of course it does. Forgot it was JS-centric. I'll have to check it out soon. What are some of the advantages it has over Sublime?
-
@creayt Sorry, I was watching GoodFellas and not paying attention to what I was typing. I edited my post, I meant to say it was hard to read, it's definitely not hard to do.
I definitely don't consider it cutting edge at all, and the syntax to be just god awful. I'd say that node.js is cutting edge and it also does support WebSocket too (naturally). Plus WebSocket libraries are available with most major languages too, just because they're automatically included with CF (assuming) doesn't make it superior.

Profiling, testing, better organisation of code, great version control, I can click and follow things, great refactoring support, way better suggestions based on the language and code you've written. It's endless, really, Sublime is basically a fancy highlighter, but better than Notepad++.

Context. It's an IDE rather than an advanced text editor. Auto-integrates with a lot of packages, code completion, remote execution, that kind of stuff.

The syntax is its major competitive advantage hahaha, and what lets one CF developer do the work of 2-3 PHP devs in the same amount of time.. Ok, you definitely don't know what you're talking about. I was worried you did for a sec, that's a relief.

The code completion in Sublime is impeccable, it also does code introspection and prompts you with your variable and method names, etc. Sublime is highly extensible and there are billions of packages that let you build your own IDE feature set in a few quick commands. Have you guys actually even used it?

No, but it does instantly dismiss your labeling of it as non-modern, which was the point.

@creayt I don't disagree that it's faster to write, but from a syntax perspective the fact it doesn't stand out from HTML I don't consider an advantage. I also don't consider it an advantage that basically almost forces one into a position of not separating concerns. You can write more CF, but will it be better, faster, and more platform independent than my PHP? (Possibly faster than Ruby, depending on various things) Certainly not, and I'm also locked into Adobe's licensing schema as well, and I don't like that. In all though the syntax issue is a matter of preference, obviously, but I think my other concerns are founded.

Ummmm, what? Better organization of code? What does that sentence mean to you?

Easier, rather, it puts you in a position to more easily organise things, because things are easier to follow and find. Proper organisation of larger projects is highly important, especially when you consider things like separation of concerns and so forth. Text editors like Sublime or Notepad++ don't really help with that at all.

The fact that Adobe is involved with ColdFusion has been a negative strike against it.
