Summary
Having a well-prepared development environment is crucial for a smooth and efficient software development process. By installing the necessary tools and programs beforehand, you eliminate the need to scramble for them mid-development, saving valuable time. A configured environment ensures a consistent workflow. You know exactly where your files are located, how to run them, and what commands to use. This reduces cognitive load and lets you focus on coding.
Using the same tools throughout the project helps maintain code style and consistency. This makes the code easier to read, understand, and maintain for yourself and others.
When everyone on the team uses the same development environment, collaboration becomes smoother. They can easily share code, troubleshoot issues, and understand each other’s work.
In this chapter, we talked about the tools we need to install before starting our development journey. Of course, we haven’t installed all the tools, but...
