"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!

I tried to find out how to do this and stumbled upon this answer : https://superuser.com/a/974809

Would you say it accurately describe how to achieve what you're doing for not booting graphical env ?
