3 pretty good ones are;

The last one is a fully fledged IDE, but if you want all the features, you need to pay for it.

The top text editors I know are:

  • Sublime Text (My personal favorite! Good for all languages)
  • Atom (Good for all languages!)
  • Brackets (Good for HTML/CSS/JS)
  • PyCharm IDE (Great IDE for Python! I use this all the time)
  • RubyMine IDE (Great for Ruby!)
  • Webstorm
  • IntellJ (Great for Java! Yes, Java, not JS)
  • MonoDevelop (Great for C#)
  • Gedit (Never used, not sure :laughing:)

Also, remember, when you want to know something, Google (or whatever search engine you like) is your friend :smiley:
