I'm splitting time between a Chromebook and a Windows laptop, but I prefer my Chromebook. I highly recommend Archetype for native, offline coding: chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/...

I tried another text editor called Caret,
but the lack of git support rebuked me.
I feel it's super important on a Chromebook.
This is what motivated me to switch to Visual Studio Code.

How are you doing it?

Caret keeps improving and updating. For git, I'm learning the command line interface. Slowly.

hi, can you share the tools you used for git? I installed "nacl development environment" and can use git inside it. But I can't use Caret to access files in "nacl development environment"

I gave up on Caret and use visual studio code instead. it has git included
