My experience with VS Code

Hello readers, How had you been? Its been long time since my last blog post. I promised to keep update this blog, yet again I broke my promises.

So lets go to the topic. I will cover only the user experience I had with VS-Code, not the technical details about it.

Few years ago, I was a Sublime user, I loved it a lot. One of my friend suggested about VS-Code. As I remember it was just the beta or first release. I installed it and tried to use it. But my first experience was similar to Sublime, so didn't give any interest about it.

But after a year, when I start programming as my job, I understood the importance of VS-Code. Here are some facts changed my mind.

  • Tons of useful extensions from Docker to syntax highlighting.
  • Excellent git extension.
  • Light-weight ( I can run it on my 5+ years old laptop)
  • Constant updates. ( adding more new features frequently )
  • LiveShare option ( we can share our coding live with anyone )
  • Super fast booting time and syntax highlighting.
Here I just listed my experience, there must be a lots of interesting missing  features for me. I will post another vs-code post related to technical aspects soon. This time soon.


This time I wont leave my blog , I will try to update at least one blog per week.

Happy Coding guys....

Git mistakes - 1

Git mistakes - 1 Hello Coders… I hope you are having a great weekend. Today I am going to talk about My Git mistake . I was working with a project where I tried to add opentracing to it (which is still not working properly). First I created a new branch from my development branch using : git checkout -b tracing Then tried to add opentracing to it, there were many errors and I was fixing one by one and committed all the codes properly. At certain point I had to revert my git branch to a previous commit I made. Then I was working on that. Didnt merge the commits back to original tracing branch. When I try to merge them with my tracing branch , I was getting a lots of errors. Tried to fix them ( merge conflicts ), but they were not working as expected. Finally I found a solution for this problem. This is kind of shortcut. Create a new branch from the current HEAD detached branch. Eg : git branch tmp git-hash-id Delete remote branch git push origin

Docker Development - Mistakes 1

Docker Development - Mistakes 1 Hello dear coders How had you been? I hope you all doing great. Today I am going to talk about my long (yet very small in total) development using docker experiences. First lets see a simple docker file from my recent hobby project. FROM golang:alpine RUN apk update RUN apk add git COPY . /go/src WORKDIR /go/src RUN set -e \ go get github.com/opentracing/opentracing-go \ && go get github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go \ && go get github.com/uber/jaeger-client-go/config RUN go build -o main . RUN chmod 755 main CMD [ "./main" ] This dockerfile based on golang:alpine and just add git to docker-image. Then copy current working directory to /go/src Set working directory and installing opentracing packages. Finally just build and running main go module. What is the so called docker mistake here? Here I didnt notice that, but when every time I run docker-compose up --build after changing the code opent
