Ask HN: What projects are you working on now?

Thanks for the feedback! In addition to CodeTour, I’m in the process of building out a couple of other tools (see below) to support better team collaboration, onboarding and knowledge retention. So I’m focusing on VS Code first, and iterating on feedback, before tackling other editors. That said, any thoughts on the usefulness of these solutions is extremely helpful, as I prioritize my backlog.

Note: Other side-projects on my journey to improve the holistic developer experience:

1. GistPad - Developer library for managing code snippets, documentation and interactive CodePen-like playgrounds. All built on top of GitHub Gists (https://aka.ms/gistpad)

2. Live Share Spaces - A virtual team room for connecting with other developers, and being able to seek and provide in-editor assistance in real-time (https://aka.ms/vsls-spaces)

This is so amazing I'm going to switch from Atom because of it! Thank you for making this!

Going to second the request to bring this to IntelliJ. Everyone I know at my current and previous jobs would use the hell out of this, but so much of JVM development is on IntelliJ now.

Awesome idea!

Thanks! Out of curiosity: in the interim of having an IntelliJ client, do you think your team would use a browser-based client and/or integration that was built into GitHub? I’m working on this right now, and I just wanted to check with you on the applicability of that for your specific team.

Yes, no doubt.
