04/05/2022, 5:51 PMyeah exactly! i can't find specifics on if c++ is just not supported or something but its very hard to find documentation on this currently - s

04/05/2022, 5:52 PMlooks like it might be related to this: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/34525 - s

04/05/2022, 5:53 PMbut you might want to try it as "cpp" instead of "c++" - a

04/05/2022, 5:54 PMthis is my first day of dendron and vs code (usually i live in intellij) so im learning everything at once - s

04/05/2022, 5:54 PMdendron is not the worst way to learn VSCode actually - s

04/05/2022, 5:54 PMand at least ya aren't going full-dumbass like me and tried to get emacs working with DOOMEmacs and org-roam as your first attempt at managing your knowledge 😅 - s

04/05/2022, 5:54 PMso far the tutorials are really nice and having an active discord beats the old style of subreddit community - s

04/05/2022, 5:55 PMyeah, this is a killer community - s
Slaytanical(LamentConfiguration)
04/05/2022, 5:55 PMexcept for the fact they tolerate me - a

04/05/2022, 5:55 PMi tried to learn emacs through orgmode but failed miserably - s

04/05/2022, 5:56 PMbig heavy ide's (and the languages they were built for) also make my brain hurt a lot a lot - a

04/05/2022, 5:56 PMfortunately i dev on linux and mac so i have really great vim support. one thing that sold me on dendron is that i can just sync it with git - s
Slaytanical(LamentConfiguration)
04/05/2022, 5:57 PMso vscode is about as heavy as i abide, i know emacs can feel heavy, but it will always feel lighter than something like Visual Studio, IntelliJ or Eclipse for me. - s
Slaytanical(LamentConfiguration)
04/05/2022, 5:57 PMthe thing that really sold me on Dendron is the fact it has heirarchies/schemas and is designed to let one refactor their notes. - a

04/05/2022, 5:58 PMyou really have to buy into an ecosystem and force yourself to build a workflow for ides to work emacs and vim let you be a little more free and with plugins can be as powerful - s
Slaytanical(LamentConfiguration)
04/05/2022, 5:58 PMbingo - s
Slaytanical(LamentConfiguration)
04/05/2022, 5:58 PMand tbh the java ecosystem ain't one i have ever liked - a
alexis<3
04/05/2022, 5:58 PMi stick with intellij because it has a workflow almost identical to what I was building with plugins in vim so the switch was easy, but thats purely coincidental imo
