Ask HN: Anyone still using multiple screens for coding?
I find it much more productive to have 2-3 screens (or 1 large 4k screen) when coding, so that I can have multiple files+browser+docs open without constantly switching windows. Furthermore, typing on a proper keyboard seems more ergonomic than using laptop keyboards.
However, lately I've seen more and more people coding on laptops (without additional screens/keyboard) even if they'd have desktops available. And many flexible office spaces don't even have the ability to install additional screens and keyboard/mouse.
Am I missing something here? Is my impression biased or is it really that uncommon to use a proper set-up for developing code?
