I developed my first macOS app, an API client built purely with SwiftUI/AppKit. It has themes like Nord, Monokai and 8 others. Been using it for my own personal use for the past 6 months.
Generally don’t pay attention to names unless it’s someone like Torvalds, Stroustrop, or Guido. Maybe this guy needs another decade of notoriety or something.
Curious, do you think his name should be as well known as Torvalds, Stroustrup, and Guido, who combined have ~120 years of serious contribution to the way that we write software, and continue to influence?
Because that’s the implication that I’m getting from downvotes + this reply.
Sure, Terraform is huge no doubt, but it’s no Linux, C++, or Python, yet. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I assume since they’re no longer involved with Hashicorp they’re no longer contributing to Terraform?
Different folks are interested in different niches. I don't know this author either. I would know many names from other subfields, though.
I once went to a meetup where the host introduced the speaker with "he needs no introduction". Well to this day I've no idea who the speaker was. Familiarity really shouldn't be assumed beyond a very, very small handful of people.
