windows-for-devs's Introduction

Make your Windows the best Developer experience ever.


Linux is awesome for usage on servers. But on personal computers, Windows is simply irreplacable ('coz games and stuff). So we setup dual boot and it has several disadvantages. To remedy this, you can make your Windows system developer friendly by using these -

Install these Windows softwares -

  • Sublime Text 3 - Fast and Feature Rich text editor
  • QTTabbar - Enhance windows explorer with tabs (like in Chrome) and Scriptable Utilities.
  • ConsoleZ - Best command line experience with split view, tabs, keyboard shortcuts, easy copy-paste etc.
  • GitBash - Git Bash adds Git version control and some common Linux commands to the shell.
  • Taskbar Numberer - Show an index number above Application icons in the Taskbar on pressing Win key.

Now let's make the best of everything -

  1. Sublime -

    • Install Package Control.

    • Install Source Code Pro font.

    • Install usefull packages by doing this -

      • Go to Prefences>Package Settings>Settings-User
      • It will open Package Control.sublime-settings, there find the installed_packages field.
      • It will be an empty array, change it to this -
          "installed_packages":
          [
            "A File Icon",
            "AutoFileName",
            "CodeFormatter",
            "Emmet",
            "JS Snippets",
            "JSX",
            "Markdown Preview",
            "Material Theme",
            "Package Control",
            "PackageResourceViewer",
            "SideBarEnhancements"
          ],
        Note - Omit JSX if you don't work on React.
    • Customize every setting in sublime.

      • Open Preferences>Settings.
      • This will open Preferences.sublime-settings file.
      • In that place the content of Preferences.sublime-settings file present in this repo's Sublime folder.
      • This makes some important changes like :
        • Excludes folders like node_modules from sidebar directory listing.
        • Adds newline at the end of every file.
        • Changes the sublime theme.
        • Indents with 2 spaces on using Tab.
    • Add custom snippets.

    • Add custom keyboard shortcuts.
