All popular IDEs (and most apps) seem stuck in a single-monitor paradigm. When are we going to get an IDE that sets the bar for working with multiple monitors? For inspiration, look at multi-monitor audio engineering consoles. Please

    Honestly I just ended up getting an ultrawide because of this. A bit more expensive than two monitors but also much better.

    I was worried it would be a pain to put one app on each half of the screen when I wanted, but it actually isn’t at all. All OSes support easy shortcuts to do it (Win+left/right). Windows is the best at this but Linux is ok too. IIRC Mac needs a third party app (Spectacle? Or Rectangle or something?) but it’s free.

      Windows also has the Powertoy FancyZones to setup custom snapping zones and profiles.
