Recipes are simple and easy to use

•••
The recipes themselves are Ruby scripts and are small, simple to understand and easy to create and modify.
thermoplastics

Once installed, you control Homebrew using the brew command. You can find packages using brew search, install them using brew install and remove them using brew uninstall.
thermoplastics

Quick access to a large repository of open source software

•••
Homebrew makes it easy for people to quickly install any open source software (that is contained within the apps repositories) for Mac.
thermoplastics

Does not require using sudo

•••
One of the things to like about Homebrew is that it refuses to run things under sudo most of the time. This is a great policy, but it causes issues when you want to create symlinks or install in places that SIP has changed permissions on.
thermoplastics
Top Pro

Less maintenance than Macports

•••
Macports seems to be able to get into a bad state where new packages are unable to be installed, or installed software was unable to be updated. This simply hasn't happened with Homebrew. In addition to not having to deal with corruption problems, Homebrew installs packages in userland. Not r...

Homebrew as much as possible uses already existing libraries and tools to install software thus making builds quick and requiring few dependencies.
thermoplastics
Top Pro

Unintrusive

Using the Preferences Menu, you can set up hotkeys to map virtually any action you can think of to a single key or a combination of them.

I think Tower looks just so much better, cleaner than other git apps. Even if it doesn't you make work faster, it sure is a pleasure to use and look at.
Myrne Stol

Tower was the first GUI for git that made sense to me, and I've come to love it's intuitive way of staging and committing parts of the changes in the working directory.
SophisticatedHuixtocihuatl

SourceTree

Free to use without registration. After 30 days, it requires registration (which is also free).
Hugo Haas
Top Pro

Simple yet powerful

•••
SourceTree allows you to do advanced Git operations while making them straight-forward for those who are still adjusting to Git.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Informative branch visualisation

•••
In addition to color-coded branches and icons that tell if a file has been added, removed or modified, Sourcetree also displays the number of commits that are ahead and behind remote repo.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Consistent UI across platforms

•••
SourceTree is great for working in a cross-platform environment as it has the exact same UI on Windows as it has on OS X.
Hugo Haas
Top Pro

Allows chunks and lines selection during commit

•••
SourceTree automatically splits the changes to be committed into chunks allowing committing (or discarding) each chunk separately. Furthermore, the user can even select specific lines. This greatly increases the flexibility of the user in that matter.
Hugo Haas

Obscures the fundamentals of git

In my experience, people who rely on this tool struggle to understand how git actually works. Much better to simply use the command line, and then perhaps move to this utility after you have that mastered. (Side note: I've never known a developer who moved to SourceTree after learning git on t...

You don't need to configure and add plugins before being productive. However, you can add plugins if needed but for the basics you're well covered.
Paolo

Updated frequently

•••
There's a new release of Visual Studio Code every month. If you are one of the insiders then releases are daily.
Paolo

Great performance

•••
For a 'wrapped' web-based application, Visual Studio Code performs very well.
Yonatan

IntelliSense is great

•••
VS Code offers a great autocomplete for javascript which in other IDEs is usually not working so well because of the way the language is built (doesn't have static typing).
Yonatan
Top Pro

Integrated Git

VS Code comes with built in Git support. This including viewing diffs, stage files, commit, push, pull and more.
zou ying
Top Pro

Fast and powerful.

VS-Code has the speed of Sublime and the power of WebStorm. Perhaps this is the best software that Microsoft has ever created.
zou ying
Top Pro

Integrated terminal

•••
There's no need to press alt+tab to go to a terminal: it is directly integrated into the editor.
zou ying
Top Pro

Extendable through plugins

Visual Studio Code comes fairly complete out of the box, but there are many plugins available to extend its functionality.

Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Great support from the community

•••
The community is very active and there is a welcoming gitter chat to ask for questions.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Mnemonic and consistent key bindings

•••
Key bindings are organized in mnemonic namespaces, for instance buffer actions are under b, file actions under f, project actions under p, search actions under s etc... Key bindings are consistent across the whole distribution thanks to a set of conventions.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Use SPACE bar as leader

•••
Spacemacs got its name from the fact that it is using by default the space bar as a leader key. The key was chosen because it is easy to press and to hopefully lower the risk of RSI.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Combines the best parts of Vi and Emacs

•••
Spacemacs combines the Emacs platform (with the full power of the Emacs plugin ecosystem) and the Vi keybindings in the same box.
TruthfulAequitas
Top Pro

Cross-platform

•••
Emacs runs on Gnu/Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Simple but powerful configuration architecture

•••
At the heart of Spacemacs, the configuration layers group packages configuration into semantic units that can be toggled on and off. The architecture is simple but powerful allowing to easily manage configuration dependencies between hundreds of packages.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Above average documentation quality

•••
Documentation is mandatory for each new configuration layers and can be accessed directly within the editor in Org format.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Community-driven configuration

•••
Spacemacs is the biggest community-driven Emacs starter-kit.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Gradual learning curve

•••
Evil package is a first class citizen, Spacemacs embraces it from day one. Evil package allows VIm users to be productive very quickly while still allowing regular Emacs users to use Spacemacs.
Laura Kyle
Top Pro

Fast-paced development

•••
New functionalities and fixes are added every day and release cycles are short.
Laura Kyle
Top Con

High CPU and unresponsive at times

•••
There are occasions when Spacemacs would suddenly consume a LOT of CPU and at other times would become completely unresponsive. Restarting Spacemacs would always fix it for a while. It was just really unstable and this was only 6 months or so ago. May be fixed in newer versions.
Laura Kyle
Top Con

Functionality layers of complicate configuration

•••
To configure spacemacs, settings for Emacs/Evil/Spacemacs may need editing. Its not always clear which need to be changed or how to change settings globally, sometimes hooks are needed, other time spacemacs provides options.
Laura Kyle
Top Con

Slow startup time

•••
Although configuration is heavily lazy loaded, the starting time of Spacemacs is usually between two and five seconds. Emacs can be run as a daemon though which reduces the clients startup time to a few milliseconds.

Good auto-completion

•••
MacDown has a good built-in auto-completion engine for Markdown symbols.
Belle
Top Con

The Markdown preview is rather heavy on the CPU

The Markdown preview needs a lot of resources to keep rendering on-the-fly after each keystroke. A single keystroke in the editor panel may trigger up to 5 seconds of max-CPU usage.
Belle
Top Con

Not very versatile

•••
MacDown is not very powerful or versatile. It's not customizable or extendable. This is what makes it so simple, but it's not for people who want more from their tools.
