Workflow for Dapp Development

Question

There is so much information out there that turns around this point that I decided to make a post, can someone please help out?

Does that sound correct as a work-flow for medium/large size projects ?:

• Use Mix IDE (can I use it with geth?) or ethercamp Ethereum Studios to write and test the contracts.
• Use Meteor and Webstorm(or some other javascript IDE) to Build the platform, eventually using place-holder javascript variables until the contracts are ready.

• Move the contracts over to the meteor file structure and add the tested functions to the relevant javascript files.

• Does truffle fit in somewhere in that picture or will it just create noise since there will already be the Meteor framework?

Thanks!

Answer 1

• Mix IDE is officially supported by Ethereum, and can be used with geth. But you could use either of them based on your preference.

• You could also take a look at some other Javascript IDEs, specially atom.

• As far as I know, Meteor+web3js is sufficient, and trying to use Truffle or Embark will only make it more confusing.
