There was poll on the topic in this thread: [http://forum.freecodecamp.com/t/what-is-you-perfered-text-editor-an-informal-poll/14072](http://forum.freecodecamp.com/t/what-is-you-perfered-text-editor-an-informal-poll/14072)

I personally prefer Sublime Text 3 but Visual Studio Code, Notepad++ and Atom are perfectly good editors and they’re free unlike Sublime, which bothers you with a plea to pay for it if you use the free version.
