Day 27 in the #vDM30in30

I started off as a Java developer, so I was used to Eclipse and Intelij, quite heavy IDE’s with lots of assistance.

After moving away from Java and into Ruby, I noticed one of the other developers was using TextMate, and it seemed much nimbler and easier to get things done.

However, there were a few annoying things that about Textmate at the time (circa 2012~), such as Textmate crashing when you looked at large files. At the time we had a few larger JSON fixtures (not massive, 50-100kb or so) we were using for testing. A bit of a pain.
