What's Your Preferred Text Editor?

[quote pid="412604" dateline="1694585065"]
If you need a bare text editor that is extremely powerful, but "somewhat" complex to understand, there's also Emacs

Could you please recommend any resources or links to help beginners get started with Emacs? Any tips or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I think any given search engine on the Internet will be your best friend here. I've been using Emacs for 20+ years, but still mainly use it from a bash prompt to do quick code editing, and/or Linux configuration management. Other suggestions that have been given here, like vscode, sublime, etc may be a better choice. I think this is something very personal for developers.

I know of people that use Notepad++ (Windows) and keep their entire project in a zillion tabs, so I guess it comes down to "whatever floats your boat".
