#Suggestions

• IDE

  -Ubuntu

  • SublimeText 3:

    In order to install the ES6 linter, you need to add to the package control the packages:

    • SublimeLinter
    • SublimeLinter-eslint In theory, it will use the eslint from the local node_modules, and the configuration from the .eslintrc In order to do JSX fromatting:
    • Babel Then open a .js file and go to: view -> syntax -> open all current extensions as ... -> Babel -> Javascript (Babel)

• If autowatch does not work, check the max_user_watches with:

  $ sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches
  

  If the number is relatively low (bellow 200K) try increasing the watchers by default with:

  $ echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
  

• If the nice 'World Globe' on the 'server listening on port...' line is not showing properly:

  $ sudo apt-get install ttf-ancient-fonts
