I am seeing a lot of campers using ATOM, I might have to check it out… At the moment I am using brackets which I have grown to love… before I was using Sublime Text but couldn’t really get into it HA! there is something abut the ease of a word editor I think
I think I like how with brackets has a “Change-As-You-Type” browser preview so I can see what I am doing and how it effects the page. I am still very new to all this so my mindset might change once I get farther down the rabbit hole!
I mainly use Brackets for my HTML, CSS, and JS because it has Live Preview, and it’s free.
Vim for everything else.
One problem I have with Brackets:
I have Apache set up on Ubuntu 16.04.
If I open a file located in my /var/www directory using Brackets without sudo, I can’t save any changes.
If I open Brackets with sudo, I can save changes, but Live Preview won’t work.
I either have to edit files in my home directory and copy them to /var/www OR constantly hit save and refresh. If anyone else has experienced this and found a solution, I would love to hear about it!
I installed brackets a few days ago. Looks good but I have some issues with the automatic page refresh thing, sometimes it just refuses to work (elements not displaying, css rules ignored and placing the items anywhere it wants)
And actually, more that visual studio code or even visual studio, I like how you get change your editor’s looks and syntax highlighting just as easy as a few clicks! It helps me out alot.
And also other editors like brackets or visual studio code may not be having the number of plugins that atom has. It’s also very simple and clean, like it makes me want to code aaaaaaaaaah
You know what, let me put that into perspective.
