Next.js 12
We use this for TypeScript development at my company. Using swc for transpilation reduces build time from ~10s (small-ish codebase) to near instant. We can then wrap it in entr [1] to get live API reloading for free.
For type checking, you can run the TypeScript compiler in another window in watch mode, or just rely on editor warnings until the code hits CI.

VSCode makes an absolutely excellent editor, with the VSLilyPond plugin
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).

Command Line Tools for Productive Programmers
I can't sing the praises enough of entr. Just check out its man page: http://eradman.com/entrproject/
entr lets you watch files and re-run a command any time they change. Whenever I'm working on a script, or go tests, or whatever test-like thing I'm doing that's not in its own bloated test harness, I reach for entr. Great software, does what it's supposed to every time.
