FastScript vs. Nova vs. VBScript vs. tox Comparison Chart

If we're being honest, Mac apps are a bit of a lost art. There are great reasons to make cross-platform apps — to start, they're cross-platform — but it's just not who we are. Founded as a Mac software company in 1997, our joy at Panic comes from building things that feel truly, well, Mac-like. Long ago, we created Coda, an all-in-one Mac web editor that broke new ground. But when we started work on Nova, we looked at where the web was today, and where we needed to be. It was time for a fresh start. It all starts with our first-class text-editor. It's new, hyper-fast, and flexible, with all the features you want: smart autocomplete, multiple cursors, a Minimap, editor overscroll, tag pairs and brackets, and way, way more. For the curious, Nova has built-in support for CoffeeScript, CSS, Diff, ERB, Haml, HTML, INI, JavaScript, JSON, JSX, Less, Lua, Markdown, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, Sass, SCSS, Smarty, SQL, TSX, TypeScript, XML, and YAML.

tox aims to automate and standardize testing in Python. It is part of a larger vision of easing the packaging, testing and release process of Python software. tox is a generic virtualenv management and test command-line tool you can use for checking that your package installs correctly with different Python versions and interpreters, running your tests in each of the environments, configuring your test tool of choice, and acting as a frontend to continuous integration servers, greatly reducing boilerplate and merging CI and shell-based testing. First, install tox with pip install tox. Then put basic information about your project and the test environments you want your project to run in into a tox.ini file residing right next to your setup.py file. You can also try generating a tox.ini file automatically, by running tox-quickstart and then answering a few simple questions. Install and test your project against Python2.7 and Python3.6.
