WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
Recently, VSCode popped up a helpful dialog informing me there's plugins for editing *.ly files. I installed VSLilypond, and wow, its great. Automatic compile on save, synctex like features (click note to find where it is in source, run command on source to find respective note in PDF output), and more.
Previously, I used VSCode or Vim or any other editor, and the entr program to update on save and generate a PDF preview. It worked, but wasn't that much fun. jEdit didn't really work for me and I always found Frescobaldi and friends a pain (they aren't great text editors).
