vsCode!
"Code editing. Redefined."
I consider this entry to be Microsoft's opinionated response to the wild success of Atom.
They used the same basic software stack to make a very similar editor, and with a SLIGHTLY different result!
vsCode lacks the large file handling issues of Atom, and is less customizable, and with a slightly less robust plugin community...
The ability to edit a large file and scroll without stuttering however is enough to outweigh what I consider shortcomings.
For this reason, i switched to vsCode from Atom in 2019.
As far as I see it, there are only 2 possible problems that one could have with this editor:
- There's a more purpose built editor for your use case
- You're concerned the Microsoft's collection of "telemetrics", I suggest you check out VsCodium!
