What code editor do you use and why?

[IlaiaCorde]

Grok.

Because I can write and test in it in a real time chat. Or have Grok do it for me...

But for my actual editor:

Kate. Who needs a code editor when your text editor has syntax highlighting.

When connecting over SSH, I use nano (with syntax highlighting configured).

I think the recommendation was using pycharm, but I'm still at the early chapters so I don't think it matters that much.

This is way too many months late, but notebook based editors (Jupyterlab, Google collab, marimo, vscode plug-in, etc) are really really nice when you're just starting out.

in windows i use notepad++ and in linux i use vim. i only do quick editing, so i've always found those two to be good for my use-case.

VScode because I am very basic :3 (also its the only one im used to, apart from notepad++ cuz I like the chameleon :3 )

VSCode, I'm using Python for data science and it's pretty robust with all the different extensions available.

VSCode so I can feel like a leet boy. Jupyter Notebook when I need to pay my bills.

For quick editing, Notepad++. Its GUI help me a lot to locate the exact position that need the quick fix.

For building Java application, I'd prefer Netbeans. I start use it while on my early year on college since it's free and had user-friendly tool and GUI to drag and drop any items that I need to add on my app.

But the rest, for now I still using VSCode. I was planned to give a try on Zed or Trae since my senior suggest them but I too lazy to do it. My manga list and games are more interesting than my code lines.

Vscode mainly for the simple github integration.
As a plus vscode is accessable through a browser,so i can edit my repos from anywhere with wifi.
Even with my crappy $40 android.

Does CPULator count?
risc-v and arm assembly are THE shit for me

Neovim if it's a personal project, CLion at work because we deploy using PlatformIO and none of my coworkers understands my Neovim workflow (None of them even knows how to use Vim, they all use Nano for text editing over SSH 🤮)
