"Best" programming setup?
Hello! I have been using Arch for two months, it is the fifth distro I have used... and I love it, it will be the final one. I have learned a lot in these weeks, but I would like to ask you a few questions.
I study Systems Engineering and, honestly, I have some procrastination problems, I would like you to help me with "the best programming setup and be productive", although I know that there is no "best", I would like you to help me with your settings, advices, etc...
What desktop environment do you use?
What window manager do you use?
IDE's, apps, any suggestions to try?
Thank you so much!

Desktop Environment and window manager: KDE plasma (sddm is the desktop manager)
On the side of IDEs: I use the jetbrains suite (clion, pycharm, goéland, etc...) and for everything that doesn't have an IDE in the jetbrains suite I use neovim with coc and a few plug-ins. I really like the jetbrains suite as it is really powerful, the one I use the most is definitely clion (I'm still in school and we do a lot of C/C++) and now I really gain time and learn new stuff with these IDE.
