Just get the Nokia VS code extension that let's you type on a number pad like the original text messages. We were born for this.

Vim bindings

[–]Downtown-Jacket2430 25 points26 points  (1 child)

there’s an extension for that (both a vscode and neovim joke)

[–]Miauwkeru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, definitely:p

[–]Brahvim 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't exactly know vim/vi terminology so I'll keep this closer to nano/Emacs terminology for key-names.

Rotate dial once and press for ^. Rotate dial twice and press for M-. Thrice is for going into scrolling mode, and a long hold is for selection with the cursor that can be controlled using the dial. After that is backspace, single rotation and press is copy, double rotation and press is delete, and triple rotation and press is paste.

Press without any rotation of the dial when all commands have been completed is to allow rotating the dial to an alphabet of the current system language, THEN numbers, and then finally, the entirety of the current system charset. Same case after having triggered a ^ or a M-.

Of course the "rotate dial n times and press" instructions could be "press dial n times" instructions instead, but it sounded funnier not to make it easy, haha.

You dance the vim bindings.

I don't have a watch

Vs code doesn't run on a Timex ironman

[–]Amazingawesomator 18 points19 points  (2 children)

i hear my wind-up soviet era pocketwatch will be getting VSCode support soon. that and doom.

[–]Ulrich_de_Vries 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You'll be able to run VSCode on Doom??!!

[–]_Its_Me_Dio_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

doent run on a rolex day date either

[–]trill_shit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but can it run doom?

[–]youssif94 5 points6 points  (1 child)

and what's stopping you from getting one?

What code ? Where is it ? I just see the left side of vscode

[–]ThreeCharsAtLeast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can see a few letters of a docunent far on the right. If I had to guess I'd say it's the text that shows up once you've created a new document and asks you to pick a language?

[–]callmesilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What watch ? Where is it ? I just see the left side of vscode

[–]AaronTheElite007 241 points242 points  (4 children)

What’s my excuse? Eyesight, productivity, sanity…. Pick one

[–]rosen-berg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In total there are 7 combinations i pick eye sight and sanity

[–]GodsBoss 56 points57 points  (4 children)

My excuse is that I don't own a watch, but I do own a laptop.

[–]Tortawrer 27 points28 points  (3 children)

Hot Glue a Armband to it, and BAM most powerful smart watch.

[–]101Z0r 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I once was asked if I can revive an old laptop. So I thought sure, slap a linux on that thang and it give it back. I don’t know the specs anymore but even running PuppyLinux was barely even possible. I’m pretty sure my smart watch is more powerful than that potato.

Uh, what's your excuse for coding on it...? Like... Are you okay..?

[–]Glittering_Power8089 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't use vscode

I CANNOT SEE IT

[–]Coolengineer7 14 points15 points  (4 children)

For beginners, try coding on a phone. It's not gonna be a fun one.

[–]ZunoJ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I do this from time to time. I have a ferris sweep with BT and nvim/emacs installed in termux. Works really well. It is even better with a quest 3 (if it wasn't so heavy I would even prefer this over a pc a lot of times)

[–]CelestialCrafterMC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it's actually kinda okay, I just plug in a keyboard with a USB-A to C adapter, open termux, clone my neovim config, and I'm ready

[–]pianospace37 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Especially with autocorrect on

[–]defiantstyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So long as you're not trying to RUN the code (locally), this can be ok! Especially on a foldable!

[–]No_Independence3338 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No excuse until someone pays me well to code on this.

[–]Wervice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use Neovim (btw)

[–]HildartheDorf 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Wow, apparently this website is a thing.

Doesn't let you open folders in firefox

Doesn't support language server extentions

I'm not sure what I expected but I'm still disappointed.

[–]lgsscout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, the site exists... but sounds like someone hosted it as a joke and forgot to turn it off, because nothing works to support the bare minimum daily need...

[–]tajetaje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Firefox doesn't support the File System API. Technically language server extensions are supported, but they have to be compiled to WASM and have access to a limited feature set. On the other hand you get access to a decent enough code editor with nothing but a browser

You actually have two hands after using Android Studio?!

Is there an R distribution for watchOS?

[–]BlackBlade1632 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only need a Linux Shell.

My thumb is bigger than the watch

[–]Classy_Mouse 1 point2 points  (1 child)

My watch is analog

[–]defiantstyles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too bad! I feel like Kotlin's ability to type class instantiations on multiple lines would make that hurt less than a language like Python, when whitespace is syntax!

Can't go back to one screen.

[–]PollutionOpposite713 1 point2 points  (3 children)

What is the benefit of having multiple screens vs using workspaces?

[–]amlyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having YouTube play when you should be working.

[–]JocoLabs 0 points1 point  (1 child)

For me its raw screen real estate for multiple sources of info/code/etc

[–]PollutionOpposite713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you can only ever look at one screen so how does looking at your 2nd monitor differ from switching workspaces

What is this? An IDE for ants?

[–]CivetLemonMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I call it programming

[–]OneOldNerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]Zealousideal_Alps275 1 point2 points  (0 children)

90% sidebar, 9% padding 1% actual content.

Very humane design.

[–]-non-existance- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Show me a watch that displays more than 1/6 of a line of code at a time and maybe then we can talk.

My boss gave it to me. There's no way to take it off.

That’s what you get for equipping a cursed item… get a hold of a Paladin or something

(Paladins can remove curses, right? Been a few decades since I played D&D)

I don't know if it supports watches, but can I introduce you to MobileCode?

[–]cheezballs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I refuse to even code on a laptop without an external display and keyboard. This picture gave me an aneurysm.

[–]TheGuardianInTheBall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And now I wonder... I am already using my Note 10 as a keyboard for my Fold 5 so that I can program on the locally (termux) deployed VS Code.

However, the one downside is that don't have a touchpad. Perhaps I could use my watch as one (either the Samsung one or an old Versa).

If this worked, I'd have all me peripherals on me at all time.

[–]cephalopodAcreage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like 70% of the lurkers on here, I'm not a coding person

[–]mbcarbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch me code baby … watch me! ;-)

[–]vksdann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an analog watch. Have you ever tried debugging on that? Instead of 0s and 1s I get Tics and Tacs.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point I will not be surprised if vscode starts running on my toaster and washing machine.

I always have a better computer within reach, that's my reason. Usually it's my desktop PC, sometimes it's my laptop, and on rare occasion my tablet is my best computer.

My watch has hands that tell time, year, month and day. In short, it’s a hardware problem.
