Smithereen VS Visual Studio Code

They do, or rather not old Facebook, but old VK: https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen

As a bonus it's an ActivityPub enabled application, so any specific instance of it requires less work to get the network effect going. :)

A Facebook-style ActivityPub server. Has wall posts, groups, and events.

Not yet "ready" — 1.0 would need much better moderation tools, photo albums (with tagging), discussion boards (in groups), and a client API. Direct messages are a work in progress right now.

I myself use it daily for my participation in the fediverse.

Unfortunately I don't think it fits any of the projects I work on (and I don't use VSCode to begin with, never had it installed, bit I do see an IntelliJ plugin as well).

I have one project that's a server application (https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen), but since it uses lots of custom stuff on top of the Spark micro-framework, your plugin would probably not work on it. I imagine it does expect projects to be structured idiomatically for the framework they use, at least to some degree. Spark also doesn't know anything about databases, so that is all custom as well. Oh and I also hacked it a bit with reflection to allow streaming responses.

I'm building a fediverse project that aims to fill this exact niche. It's basically a recreation of an early-ish version of VKontakte (Russian Facebook) but federated. It's not really ready yet, and there are lots of important features missing, but I do use it daily for my primary fediverse account.

I, too, am sick of all the existing social media companies trying their damnest to cater to the entertainment use case no one ever asked for.

I'm building an ActivityPub thing of my own: https://github.com/grishka/Smithereen

It's not quite ready for mainstream use just yet, but I'm getting there. The next update will improve moderation tools by a lot. One after that will, at last, add private messages.

Well, for one, fediverse is a thing, and I'm doing my part

I know of Smithereen[1] that is an attempt at a full fledged social network similar to VK on top of the ActivityPub vocabulary.

A code editor (VS Code is my go-to IDE), but feel free to use any code editor you're comfortable with.

First, grab your favorite command-line tool, Terminal or Warp, and a code editor, preferably VS Code and let’s begin.

C# is very good as a language, have developed in it for 5+ years. The problem is the gap between what MSFT promises to management and actually delivers to developers. You really really need to fully read the fine print, think of the omissions in documentation and implement a proof-of-concept that almost implements the full solution to find out the hidden gotchas.

For example, even probably their best product VS Code only got reasonable multiple screens support last year: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecommen...

And then, on the other end of the spectrum, you have Teams.

Hey fellow amazing developers, we got you Essential VS Code Extensions for 2024 (these are especially important for web developers) recommended by our developers at evotik, we wont talk about ESlint nor Prettier which all of you already know.

Visual Studio Code (VS Code): Developed by Microsoft, VS Code is a lightweight yet powerful IDE with extensive support for Python development through extensions. It offers features like IntelliSense, debugging, and built-in Git integration.

In VSCode for example this can be easily done by adding the following .vscode/launch.json file:

I had a near-identical experience. I looked into switching in 2019 and ran into this 2016 bug which was a showstopper for me. Fixed it myself, grand total 4 line diff. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10643

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), always create a new Python file for your project.

Code Editor: Choose a code editor like Visual Studio Code that offers good support for web technologies and extensions for PWA development.

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), create a new Python file for our music player project. It's helpful to have separate files for different parts of your project.
