I regret nothing. Say what you want.

Edit: I just saw the two typos. If you find them, you're welcome to keep them.

I coded several of my early mobile app releases entirely in gedit. Good times.

I sometimes forget how good we have it now. I wrote those apps around 2012 and the DX for the platforms was basically non-existent. Virtually every platform had shit documentation, shit version management, a shit IDE with minimal refactoring features, a shitty debugging experience, and everything felt like it was being botched together by 3 guys in their spare time.

It's incredible now that we have things like hot reloading. You can literally save a change and BAM it's on the screen seconds later. On native platforms no less. Astounding.
