Which text editor should I use?

I am going to build a website. There will be front end development; html, css, & java script as well as back end development; php & mysql. In the past I used Dreamweaver from Adobe. But DW no longer supports current PHP. Adobe quit installing the updates of PHP.

Which text editors are good for front and back end development?

I am using a mac.
