Great work, Gary!
I chuckled a little when reading about the tab refresh 😅 it's a feeling I am very familiar with. I have too been using AWS Cloud9 while I was taking a Cloud Engineering course and I often restarted my whole workspace when trying some fancy IJ shortcut.
After a while, I changed browser shortcuts so I wouldn't mess up my work.

Great article!

I'm glad I'm not the only one to have these issues with web-based IDEs.

I think after a short time you'd work out those muscle memory kinks, but you'd need to use the web based IDE full-time for that to be any use

Trust me, I've heard this from pretty much anyone 😅
They're very nice, but I think we're a long way from using Web IDEs all the time. If you have to travel a lot for work, and you're stuck on a plane or the underground you still want to work on your projects...

The time away from home it's actually the most productive for me 🤔 except for the announcements there are absolutely no distractions!
