Poll: Which code editor do you use?

You might be thinking we should just ask who’s not using VSCode :joy: however there are some new additions in the space that might give VSCode a run for its money! Mainly, Brackets (from Adobe) and Codespaces (in-browser editor and cloud dev environment from Github).

  • Visual Studio Code
  • Vim (or a variant)
  • Emacs (or a variant)
  • Notepad++
  • Sublime Text
  • Atom
  • TextMate
  • Codespaces
  • Brackets
  • Other - please say in thread!

I’m surprised JetBrains IDE’s aren’t on there, some of the most used in the world. But I primarily use JetBrains IDE’s or emacs. ^.^

I put other since I use jetbrains more, but it should be multiple choice. ^.^

Often Visual Studio Code (with Vim extension) and sometimes Vim.

Vim is my main editor (it works great for me, but I wouldn’t go around “recruiting” people: the right editor is the one that works for you).

When pair programming though, I use VSCode, so my pairing partner doesn’t need to learn my specific setup. When remote pairing, VSCode Live Share is just amazing.

In sum, Vim, but bravo to VSCode for some amazing features that make remote pairing so smooth!
