A new IDE that could overtake VS Code?

HowToUbuntu — Tue, 29 Mar 2022 10:07:42 +0000

Introduction

You may be wondering, how could a new IDE take over the worlds biggiest IDE, VS Code? Well, the features made by JetBrains is something VS Code lovers want for so long. Let me explain to you, Fleet.

Features

Just to clarify, I am not endorsed by Fleet. "Fleet is also a fully functional IDE bringing smart completion, refactorings, navigation, debugging, and everything else that you’re used to having in an IDE – all with a single button click." - JetBrains

1. It is Polygot

Developers often use a variety of technologies, not only across different projects but also within a single project. At JetBrains, we’ve always strived to leverage the knowledge of the environment you’re using, which is why all of our existing IDEs are based on the same core platform.

With Fleet, we take that approach one step further by making it a single IDE. You no longer have to open different IDEs to get the functionality you need for your specific technology. With Fleet it is all there in a single application.

Languages include:

Java
Kotlin
Python
Go
JSON
JavaScript
Rust
TypeScript
PHP
C++
C#
HTML
Ruby

2. Collaborative

Fleet is built with collaboration in mind. It allows you to easily collaborate on a project regardless of whether it is local or remote. It provides the ability to simultaneously work on the same or different files, run tests, access terminals, and other things that you’d expect from a collaborative IDE.

3. Essential Tools

Fleet offers an essential, well-integrated set of built-in tools for developers so they can enjoy their work and be more productive. Some of them are mentioned below:

Terminal
Git
Run & Debug
Navigation
MultiPlatform
Themes
Plugins
Port Forwarding (Forward ports from a remote dev env/remote machine to your test your application)

4. Flexibility

Fleet’s architecture is designed to support a range of configurations and workflows. You can simply run Fleet just on your machine, or move some of the processes elsewhere – for example by locating the code processing in the cloud.

Space (Quickly start working on a project hosted in Space with a ready-to-use dev enviroment
Remote machine
Docker
Cloud (VMs)

Conclusion

Wow! That's some awesome features. It is expected to come out in mid-2022. Made with JetBrains favorite programming language, Kotlin! Some people are eager for it to come out soon! We will see if it can overtake VS Code or not.

BEST VISUAL STUDIO CODE EXTENSIONS!

HowToUbuntu — Sun, 17 Oct 2021 15:30:49 +0000

Today I will show you the TOP 10 best Visual Studio Code (VSC) Extensions. Extensions make the UX (User Experience) better and more comfortable. The first catagory is File Icons.

1. Import Cost

Link: Click Here

Import Cost is a VS Code extension that displays the size of imported packages inline, so you know exactly how much importing that package will cost during the development process. So, it’ll help you to better optimize your applications and websites, particularly for mobile users who typically suffer more due to bloat.

2. GitLens

Link: Click Here

If you regularly use Git, either professionally or with your own projects, then GitLens makes it even easier to integrate your IDE with Git.

With GitLens, you can quickly see who, why, and when code was changed in any given project. Plus, you can hop back through previous changes to see why other devs changed that code, and do side-by-side comparisons to get a better understanding of why things changed.

3. Prettier

Link: Click Here

Prettier is a formatting extension that automatically formats your code for you every time you save it, so you don’t have to worry about forgetting to indent every now and then. Plus, if you’re still learning how to code, Prettier can save you a ton of headspace, allowing you to focus on your project instead of how to make your code readable.

4. Live Sass Compiler

Link: Click Here

Live Sass Compiler...well, compiles SAAS or SCSS files to CSS. Live. Regardless of if Sass is a requirement for your project or you just like the formatting, this extension can save you a ton of time (and headaches!) by taking care of the hard work for you.

5. Duckly

Link: Click Here

Duckly is a video chat tool that allows developers to talk, share their code, and collaborate on development in real-time, all directly through the IDE and independently of what IDE your team is using. That's right, you can be using VSCode and your colleagues using WebStorm.

6. Auto Close Tag

Link: Click Here

The Auto Close Tag extension, as you might expect, automatically closes HTML or XML tags for you in the IDE. So, when you type an opening tag, this extension will create the closing tag for you. All you have to do is write your code between them, and you’re good to go.

7. Path Intellisense

Link: Click Here

Path Intellisense makes working with file paths easy by offering either an autocomplete or suggestions for your code. Simply begin typing a path in quotations, and Path Intellisense will either automatically complete the path for you or suggest a variety of different options if it’s not sure what option you want.

8. Tabnine

Link: Click Here

Tabnine is a massively popular AI assistant for VSCode that works with all major programming languages, so there’s no doubt you’ll find it useful no matter what your skillset is.

9. Debugger for Chrome

Link: Click here

With Debugger for Chrome, you can edit your JavaScript code directly in your Chrome browser or via your application. This powerful extension will find which lines of code bugs are hiding in, so it’s easy to find what you need to fix. It’s also compatible with some remote working extensions like Remote - SSH, making it one of the top VSCode extensions you need in your life.

10. NPM Intellisense

Link: Click Here

NPM without a doubt can be a pain not just on how it eats up our memory, but there are just so many in there that’s a bit difficult to track.
If you have been working or planning on taking Nodejs, then you’d see how helpful this tool is, importing several packages or modules, and there are like thousands of them, you really can’t just memorize their paths, right?

How to turn your AWS S3 Bucket into a network drive! (Free)

HowToUbuntu — Thu, 14 Oct 2021 21:40:46 +0000

Did you know you can add your S3 bucket to your network drive WITHOUT using your local drive storage?? Ditch Onedrive, Dropbox or Mega! I will show you the process on how to set it up 100% for free!

Process

To begin you must have an AWS account.

Go to your AWS Control Panel
Search up IAM and press the first icon
At the right side there should a button called Users
Once clicked there will be a button in front of you saying, Add Users. It should a blue button:
Once clicked name your user anything, I will name mine sammy. For access type click Access key - Programmatic access. Once both done click Next: Permission
Now look at the top of the three options and find Attact existing policies directly. In the search text box type in S3. Find the permission called AmazonS3FullAccess. Click the gray box and we will continue by pressing Next: Tags in the bottom corner.
Once at the Tag section just skip it since it is not needed for the process. Just press Next: Review.
Look over and see you added the permission AmazonS3FullAccess. If you did then press Create User
Now you will receive the Access key ID and the Secret access key Copy both of them into notepad or download the .csv file if you want. Make sure you have them copied or else you will never be able to get access to them AGAIN!
Once back at the homepage you to install an application called Netdrive. This will be the tool to help us connect. To install just click here if you are on windows and click here if you are on MacOS but it has a free trial :(
Once installed open up the app you should see something like this. I already am using this so I have some drives on it.

(I blurred information because of privacy)

If you noticed there is a green plus button in the bottom corner. Press it and the best part will happen!
plus.png If you look under the header Storage Type, press the blank box and scroll down click S3
Now once clicked S3 press Connect. You would see that the Access ID and Secret Key appears and thats why we needed them. Paste in the information and keep the server the same. Press Ok
Now change the path to your S3 bucket you made. Change the label to whatever you want. Under Auto Connect Options. Make sure Mount on boot is on or your have to connect every single time.
Once all configuation is done press Ok. Now you should see a new box appear showing the label. Press Connect and you are done! Soon a folder pop-up will show you in the folder. If you already had files in there you could see them!

Also here are some cool things you also get with Netdrive for FREE!

SSL/TLS connection 24/7
You can read/write all files in your bucket
For me I have over 2 ExaBytes! I didn't select how much storage I want in my bucket 😆.

How to host a Wordpress site on AWS Lightsail FOR FREE!!!

HowToUbuntu — Sat, 09 Oct 2021 00:01:39 +0000

What is Wordpress?

WordPress is the simplest, most popular way to create your own website or blog. In fact, WordPress powers over 40.0% of all the websites on the Internet. Yes – more than one in four websites that you visit are likely powered by WordPress!

Process

To begin go to the AWS Control Panel and find the search bar.
Now type Lightsail and click the first service. Now you should see something like the following:

Press the orange button called Create instance. Now scroll down and you will see Lightsail by default selected Wordpress.
Keep scrolling down and you will see instance plan. If you have AWS Free Tier you shouldn't worry this. If you don't have AWS Free Tier then the first 3 months are FREE! I recommend the $5/month deal. Name your instance and then press the big button saying Create instance. Now wait 3 minutes for your VM (Instance) to load up. To know it is loaded up you will see the Wordpress icon blue and not gray.
Click on the terminal icon to the right of the instance name. After that, a new window will pop-up for the VM terminal. Go back to the Lightsail dashboard and find the IPV4 (EX: 127.0.0.1). My VM's ip is 13.59.157.149. Once copied go to your broswer and paste it in with the following line:

13.59.157.149/wp-admin

You should see the following:

The default user is user but to find the password we need to go back to the terminal.
Once back in the terminal paste in the line:

cat bitnami_application_password

Select the output and paste it into the password. Once you logged in you are done! You should see the following once logged in:

The only thing now stopping you is you creating it! I will soon show you how to connect a domain + SSL!

What is SQL Developer?

SQL Developer provides powerful editors for working with SQL, PL/SQL, Stored Java Procedures, and XML. Run queries, generate execution plans, export data to the desired format (XML, Excel, HTML, PDF, etc.), execute, debug, test, and document your database programs, and much more with SQL Developer.

Prerequisite(s)

JDK 8/11

Downloading Prerequisite

Oracle JDK 8/11

Go to download Oracle JDK page
1. I will use Oracle JDK 11 because it has a .deb installation file which can be easily installed using dpkg
Download Oracle JDK 11 for Debian package (at the time of this post, the version is 11.0.8), you will be prompted to sign in using oracle account to download, you will be prompted to sign in using oracle account to download

Oracle SQL Developer

Go to download Oracle SQL Developer page
Download Oracle SQL Developer for Other Platforms (at the time of this post, the version is 20.2)

Prerequisite Completed

Installation

Install Oracle JDK 11 and Oracle SQL Developer

Oracle JDK 11

Open your terminal, go to directory where your prerequisite files are located (in my case it's in ~/Downloads)
Install Oracle JDK 11 by using command:

sudo dpkg -i [YOUR_ORACLE_JDK_PACKAGE.deb], in my case it's sudo dpkg -i jdk-11.0.8_linux-x64_bin.deb

Verify your installation by listing the directory of /usr/lib/jvm

Oracle SQL Developer

Open your terminal, go to /opt directory. This is where i will store the sqldeveloper application, you can choose other directory, but this my preference (and i read also that /opt is for 3rd party apps that we cannot install via apt package manager)
Unzip Oracle SQL Developer with command

sudo unzip [YOUR_SQL_DEVELOPER_FILE_WITH_LOCATION].zip,

By default the unzip program will extract the zip file into the current directory, since we are in /opt now, we don't need to specify target directory.

Locate your Oracle JDK installation under /usr/lib/jvm, we'll need this location to tell Oracle SQL Developer where our Oracle JDK is located. In my case it's /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-11.0.8
Go inside the sqldeveloper directory
You can see that sqldeveloper.sh has executable permission so that we can run it by doing ./sqldeveloper.sh or sh sqldeveloper.sh in the current directory.
You will see Oracle SQL Developer starting

That’s it, you have successfully installed SQL Developer on your Ubuntu Device and you can start using it!

How to install JDK 16 on Ubuntu (and Debian)

HowToUbuntu — Tue, 07 Sep 2021 23:17:38 +0000

First of all JDK 16 is the open-source reference implementation of version 16 of the Java SE Platform, as specified by by JSR 390 in the Java Community Process. JDK 16 reached General Availability on 16 March 2021. Production-ready binaries under the GPL are available from Oracle; binaries from other vendors will follow shortly.

Well lets begin!

This tutorial is very simple and will show a install and unistall process of JDK 16!

Time to INSTALL! (remember to unistall all past JDK versions)

Install commands



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linuxuprising/java

Press enter when it tells you.

This may take a while or very short amount of time.



sudo apt update

This now will take a while.

This command will now install JDK 16



sudo apt install oracle-java16-installer

Press y when it prompts you

Wait 1-5 minutes max

And you are done!

To test go to your terminal and type



java --version

That is all for installation!

When JDK 17 comes out fully maybe you want to unistall JDK 16 to install JDK 17

The first command to unistall is



sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:linuxuprising/java

This may take a a little amount of time or a while



sudo apt-get remove oracle-java16-installer

This command will usually take as long as the installation.

Once its done try typing in the command



java --version

You will get a error message!

That is all for Installing/Unistalling JDK 16. Try doing this on other Linux Distros to see if it works. I only tested Ubuntu and Debian. The Ubuntu Server Distro will also work!

How to install NodeJS on Ubuntu!

HowToUbuntu — Tue, 07 Sep 2021 23:13:08 +0000

How to install NodeJS on Ubuntu!

Option 1: Installing Node.js with Apt from the Default Repositories

Ubuntu 20.04 contains a version of Node.js in its default repositories that can be used to provide a consistent experience across multiple systems.

Warning: the version of Node.js included with Ubuntu 20.04, version 10.19, is now unsupported and unmaintained. You should not use this version in production, and should refer to one of the other sections in this tutorial to install a more recent version of Node.

To get this version, you can use the apt package manager. Refresh your local package index first by typing:

$ sudo apt update

Then install Node.JS

$ sudo apt install nodejs

Check that the install was successful by querying node for its version number:

$ node -v

Output

v10.19.0

If the package in the repositories suits your needs, this is all you need to do to get set up with Node.js. In most cases, you’ll also want to also install npm, the Node.js package manager. You can do this by installing the npm package with apt:

$ sudo apt install npm

This will allow you to install modules and packages to use with Node.js.

At this point you have successfully installed Node.js and npm using apt and the default Ubuntu software repositories. The next section will show how to use an alternate repository to install different versions of Node.js.

Please comment any suggestions or if it worked!
