Announcing: PonyOS 8
As for my development environment, for the last several years, I have done all of my programming in my own editor, which I built for the OS but use on Linux as well as my "daily driver". It also uses Kuroko for syntax highlighting scripts and as a general command and configuration language. The OS is generally built with gcc/binutils, though I've done clang builds in the past. The build system is mostly Make, with a bit of magic from Kuroko to automatically track dependencies for userspace applications.

Micro – A Modern Alternative to Nano
From sailplane straight to (at least) a Cessna looks more like another level, supercharge and weight class all in one. I guess it's fair to locate 'micro' rather somewhere in the in-between, a middle ground and then there are in fact not that many contenders on the CLI, or else they're fossils. I would've thought this is what makes it attractive to some? Whereas others don't really have a use case. As for 'nano' on the other hand frankly there are about as many proper and more modern alternatives as there are Linux distributions and I'm sure anyone who's still a console regular has their favorite or two. I'm a vimmer but for quick snaps or in very strange places I *really* like dte. Am not associated with the project: https://github.com/craigbarnes/dte
