  • Directus

    The Modern Data Stack 🐰 — Directus is an instant REST+GraphQL API and intuitive no-code data collaboration app for any SQL database.

  • I just really like Svelte, Directus, and Checkly

    binary releases of VS Code without MS branding/telemetry/licensing

  • If you want VS Code without Microsoft's telemetry, try out https://vscodium.com/ - it's open source and community-driven. Same VS Code, without the Microsoft baggage.

  • vim-fugitive

    fugitive.vim: A Git wrapper so awesome, it should be illegal

  • https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter Since your already on neovim these plugins are excellent for git integration within vim! You may just prefer lazygit but having a tight integration in editor is definitely really nice for my personal workflow. Your approach is more unix-y where you have a tool for each job though!

  • vim-gitgutter

    A Vim plugin which shows git diff markers in the sign column and stages/previews/undoes hunks and partial hunks.

  • ale

    Check syntax in Vim/Neovim asynchronously and fix files, with Language Server Protocol (LSP) support

  • coc.nvim

    Nodejs extension host for vim & neovim, load extensions like VSCode and host language servers.

  • language-server-protocol

    Defines a common protocol for language servers.

  • gitflow

    Git extensions to provide high-level repository operations for Vincent Driessen's branching model.

  • For us it was git-flow (https://github.com/nvie/gitflow). A straightforward yet effective way to impress momentum in the use of basic strategies: master branch is for production, feature/... for developing new stuff, devel(op) branch for preparing next release (merging feature and hotfixes), release/... for release candidates, hotfix/... for zero-day or fixes on production... Absolutely nothing new, absolutely easy to do.
