I use one daily, I replaced my macbook pro with the pixel 2. I also use a Toshiba Chromebook 2.

I use node, ruby, postgres, redis, rvm, nvm, terminator, atom, and smartgit.

I have tried sublime and visual studio code also and both work, I just prefer atom.

All programs I have open in their own window or tab and use chromeos native browser for web browsing and dev tools. One exception is smartgit. It spins up multiple processes and I haven't figured out how to run it without running a full Ubuntu desktop.

If you plan to try it out install crouton with xiwi,extension targets and use xiwi to open the programs.
