Choosing your IDE

The choice of development environment is not an easy one. I will try to give some advice that goes beyond technical specifications.

User-Guide-Driven Development

The mechanics of UGDD is similar to that of Test-Driven Development (TDD), but before I write the test for a feature, I write a snippet of the user guide describing the feature I am about to implement.
