Hello fellows, i recently got into custom addon + Weakaura development for my guild (not a top 10 guild but its for the fun and experience of it).

I wnated to know what tools other WA devs use to write their auras. Is it just the ingame addon and they click their stuff together? is there some IDE tooling or plugins for it ?
Just looking to find some experience 🙂

!starterkit has some I think

A few addons I like:
TextureAtlasViewer (though WA's own Blizz Atlas pickers is maybe even better these days)
Frame Inspect (overlaps with Blizzard's own /framestack in functionality)
ScriptLibrary (similar to other options like ReHack or WowLua, lets you write and run snippets)

Most of doing this stuff is about having good bookmarks in your browser to access info tbh.

VisualStudioCode for editing large functions outside of the game
