On my Linux I sometimes use nano or vim as internal terminal text editor, but I honestly prefer use gui softwares.
I mostly use:
- Geany
- Gedit
- Visual Studio Code (as main projects editor)
- Notepad++
- Visual Studio Community 2022
(The last 2 in Windows virtual machine)
I also have installed Mousepad and Kate, but I’m not so addicted to them.
Notive I’ve installed Kate just for the software Krusader compatibility, which is part of KDE desktop.
