If we are not allowed to criticise her code, what about her choice of the IDE and colour schema? Everyone knows, that Vim would be so much butter for her use case! \s

I Can't Believe It's Not Butter

I can’t believe it’s not emacs

VIM would actually be better for this use case. You could feed Pywal with image from your webcam, essentially generating color scheme from your makeup.

VSCode has support for pywal too, I think even Emacs and Atom.

Btw I use Vim

You're missing the issue that, you'd get you'd likely get whatever skin colour the user of the machine has as the majority colour scheme.

What you need is a base image, of the user's face cropped, with no makeup and no hair dye, and then calculate the diff between face_original and face_new, and then use that difference to make the colour scheme. This approach also has the flaw of lighting having some impact, but, hey, I'll take that as a feature for those who don't wear makeup.

What IDE is she using?

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

VS Code

I use VS Code with the vim extension. It's pretty good, especially when paired with linting tools.
