Sometimes programming tools are so good that you miss them when using other languages. I see these mentioned the most frequently:
* IntelliJ (for Java)
* Slime+Emacs (for Common Lisp)
* Pharo (for Smalltalk)
I'm struck that they all have bespoke UIs.
I'm trying to decide the best voice for PL documentation.
Passive: "`let` can be used with destructuring."
Reader focused: "You can use `let` with destructuring."
Describing the PL: "FooLang supports destructuring with `let`."
Anyone have opinions or best practices?
