Y'all writing software with a write-compile-run development loop, how do you do it better than:

Ctrl-S to save
Alt-Tab to terminal
make↵
./bin/something↵
(play with program)
(close program)
Alt-Tab back to editor

Is there some kind of vim, emacs, helix, etc. workflow that reduces the number of steps for all that? What am I looking for?
