I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I use a separate terminal emulator because, well, I do most things in the terminal. I don't have a need for an IDE which exceeds my need for a terminal and text editor right now.
If I was a Java programmer then that might be different, for example, but I'm not.
I use tmux because I like -
being full-screen or at least maximised vertically
being able to split it into panes
organising it into separate projects/task spaces
able to pick up a session where I left off, even on a remote system
Mostly, I just like having the space to do things rather than be in a little window inside an editor. It feels a bit wrong to use that little window to do anything outside the scope of the project I'm in, anyway.
I am a frontend developer focused in creating application with React, Vue and Svelte. Currently, I am a software engineering student at Kasetsart University.
I usually use built-in terminal because I just need to run npm run dev and nothing else right now. After this year, I might consider using terminal emulator because I may need space for data structure and algorithm homework.
