How I’m still not using GUIs in 2019: a guide to the terminal

GUIs are bloatware. I've said it before. However, rather than just complaining about IDEs I'd like to provide an understandable guide to a much better alternative: the terminal. IDE stands for Integrated Development Environment. This might be an accurate term, but when it comes to a real integrated development environment, the terminal is a lot better. In this post, I'll walk you through everything you need to start making your terminal a complete development environment: how to edit text efficiently, configure its appearance, run and combine a myriad of programs, and dynamically create, resize and close tabs and windows. I don't agree with the initial premise, but an interesting article nonetheless.
