Top 3 Tips and Tricks For Faster and Efficient Programming

Introduction:

We are in an age, where time is everything! Programming applications take much time! That's triggered me, and I ended up all my experience in this post. In the following steps, I have mentioned some of the best techniques to save time and code efficiently.
                       

#1. Use IDEs or IntelliSense Code Editors:

Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) saves a plenty of time as they have a built-in feature of expecting what the code will be when typing. This feature is called IntelliSense. Simple Text Editors do not come with such feature-packed. So, we have to use other software applications that comes with IntelliSense. Some common and useful text editors are:

  • Visual Studio Code: Developed by technology giant Microsoft, it is of the lightest and efficient code editor. It has support for IntelliSense and is also cross-platform(Windows, Mac, Linux).
  • Brackets: It is also one the best code editors. Has built-in server framework that means when a build a web application, debugging can be accessed from the code editor itself. It is also cross-platform.
  • Atom: Atom is growing among the programmers and developers rapidly. Being supported by thousands of plugins and open-source, it is very effective for use. It is also cross-platform.
  • Sublime Text: It is also a famous code editor, and cross-platform that you always expect a software application to be.
The above-listed software applications are the best code editors for free in this date. All the four mentioned applications are best in their field, no one is perfect. It's upon you which one to choose and use for.

#2. Using Plugin:

There are certain plugins or extensions that can help you code faster than ever. After using such plugins, you can't live without plugins. Plugins are made for text-code editors. The editors that are mentioned on #1 usually support such plugins.

For example:
Emmet is a plugin for many popular text editors which greatly improves HTML & CSS workflow.
There are many plugins, for enhancing other languages also. Just google it up and you will get a pretty good list of such plugins.

#3. Windows to Linux:

This is a major change you should do as if you are a developer or programmer. 
Linux has a built-in environment for programming. The Linux Command Line Interface called Terminal is all in all in Linux. Using Terminal the process of installing applications saves a lot of time than installing in windows via install managers. The Windows Command Line Interface is also powerful but not that all. Linux has pre-installed applications for developers such as python, javac, open JDK, VirtualBox, etc. essential for development. Though there are not many applications that are available for Linux what Windows has. Installing applications is pretty much easy and efficient in Linux using simple commands. The most popular Linux distro is Ubuntu. Also, Debian is too useful.

Conclusion:

Sum all the above steps up, and you are ready to go for efficient programming or developing. Refer to Google for further tips.
