Monodevelop
May 1, 2006 4:42 am hackingSo I started testing out Monodevelop for hacking on my resurrected Ludwig van. It’s pretty nice, I think. Obviously it’s pretty far from Visual Studio, but it’s not bad. The big new thing in the latest release is the integration of stetic, the user interface builder.
Maybe I’m retarded, but I just can’t ever seem to save time by using these UI builders. Glade was okay, but so far I can’t figure out how to use stetic in any remotely useful way. In this respect, I don’t feel that Visual Studio is much further along because its UI builder is pretty useless too. But as I said, maybe I’m just retarded.
