Text Editors
Text editors are often a matter of personal preference. Try installing some other text-editors and see which one you like best. Here's a list to get you started.
- TextMate - Mac only with free trial available. This text-editor is similar to Sublime Text.
- Notepad++ Windows only and free to use. It's similar to Notepad (which is included with Windows) but has some more advanced features.
- Codekit - Mac only with free trial available. Includes support for more advanced frameworks and templating languages like Less, Sass, Stylus, Coffeescript, and more.
- Vim - This text-editor is very powerful but also difficult to learn. It's intended for advanced programmers.
