On Linux, using AwesomeWM bindings:

  • Caps+E, pull up emacs
  • Caps+D, pull up IDE
  • Caps+Q, pull up browser (repeated calls pull up different windows)
  • Caps+Y, pull up terminal
  • Caps+Down, split the last two called windows side by side
  • Caps+Down, undo the split
  • Caps+Up, maximize the current window

I have many more bindings, but these are the main ones and probably the only one's I will ever need

If I need to do something concurrently I will split my focus between two tasks and no more.

If I need to edit a UI with code, I do Caps+E, do my edit, then Caps+D and refresh the UI.

I'm literally a finger away from everything, and my head does not need to move from center.

Hey you do you bro I’m not about to tell you how to do your shit, but I think the consensus here is pretty clear.

Anyways if it works for you then no harm no foul, just seems counter to anybody I’ve ever interacted with that’s a developer. (That’s sounds like I’m saying you’re not, and I don’t mean it that way.).

Thank you! It's not often that users on Lemmy reply with such openness and honesty, instead of hiding behind the skirt of sarcasm

It was a bit tongue in cheek I know. I have a very similar setup, but why being judgemental with such a simple thing? It seems like a waste of time and energy. You need those to tweak the setup instead.

Cos. Superiority complex. No true hacker should need more than a harddrive and a needle to flip bits to do what they need to do in a pinch
