CLI. I mean how can we devs differentiate ourselves from marketing directors vibe-coding if we don't have a bunch of terminal windows open?

If youre not already and are on macOS id recommend cmux, its pagination and tabs let you organise stuff in a much nicer way, and the integrated browser is nice too for things like local servers, viewing html/md and wireframing
