As I've noticed, some devs see music as a distraction and absolutely hate it, while some won't write a single line of code without headphones on ears.
Which type of person are you and could you please elaborate a bit on your reasons behind it?

For me this heavily depends on the music. For example I can listen to jazz without a problem but I cannot even write more than two lines while listening to rock or metal.
No music for me. I can generally focus just fine even when unusual stuff is happening as long as it isn't music. The quieter it is, the better. I will occasionally throw on headphones not to play music but to drown out some environmental chatter if I really need to focus.
Probably depends entirely on the person and whether or not they grew up listening to music while studying for school.
Definently music FTW!
I generally have one of the chill lofi or classic jazz playlists on spotify while I work. I personally can't work or focus when the music has vocals/lyrics in it.
But if I have to really get into "the zone" while coding which requires long periods of undivided attention, I go for the binaural beats. You have four different types depending on the result you are looking for like for high intense concentration or different frequncies when you want to relax or even for deep sleep.
Hahah, actually been listening to Go this evening and also a lot of Righteous couple weeks ago xdd
Depends on the mood.
no music i rather be silent make me focused
No music for me.. I’m usually listening to space white noise on YouTube - helps me focus on what I’m doing and tune out other noise around me
No music, I cant focus on two things at once.
I rarely listen while refactoring
I like no lyric music to stay focus when coding. But silence does help when watching tutorials or books.
Depending on the mood. But most of the time no music. If I go with music mostly jazz instrumental.
