Sublime Text

Files auto save, so a crash, or even accidental close will not cause you to lose anything. Also handles massive files, which is nice. On top of being a nice, very configurable code editor,



Second vote for this.

This is hands-down the best and most reliable piece of software I've encountered. It's insanely flexible (hello, org mode!), and it is pretty much where I live at work.

Almost never fails me. And if a job changes or a work policy changes and I have to switch from Windows to Mac to Linux or whatever, it makes no difference. I clone a repo with my settings and packages, and I'm pretty much done. Maybe change the path to my repls or node, but for the most part, I can be up and running on a new machine and ready to dev in a few minutes.

Absolutely love this, and never have stability problems.


I like sublime text too. but the most recent update seems to have an issue. sometimes when opening a file on linux, I won't see any content rendered unless I resize the sublime text window.


I have that issue with some other apps as well. It's particularly noticeable for me with Terminal windows, which will lose their contents if I drag them to another monitor. I'm not entirely sure that's Sublime Text, I think it might be something between the window manager and the GPU drivers.


Same problem here, I had to switch back to the previous version because of it. Using ubuntu Gnome 16.04.


+1 for Sublime Text. It's one of those things that just works smoothly.
