Sublime Text: A light-weight text editor for smooth coding

Overall, my experience with Sublime Text was great. Since, we deployed sublime text on our desk we are able to solve underlying complexities at coding at ease. We are able to program or write codes for web applications to creating responsive websites, within a single text editor. As it supports multiple languages, we are able to switch between programming language or integrate one with another. Also, I loved the well organized folders tab that has extremely helped us in dealing with each and every files we need at work.

PROS

Sublime text is a pretty cool text editor with an incredibly active package repository. It's light weight and available for multiple platforms i.e. Mac, Linux and Windows. It's an all in one feature-rich editor meant for smooth coding. Going with premium versions, it has lot of integrated features including distraction free writing mode, quick shortcuts, search function, split editing and much more.

CONS

The only cons, I found in this text editor is that- it doesn't support direct installation of theme, extensions or plugins. We need to depend upon other third-party programs or IDE's to get these features. Apart from that, this application has no any further issues.

Reasons for switching to Sublime Text

Sublime supports third-party package integrations, annotations, shortcut keys and generate automatic code or autocomplete the texts, which is mostly lacking in Notepad++.

A customizable IDE for everyday coding

I started using Sublime about 5 years ago. I saw it as an upgrade over notepad/notepad ++. I have enjoyed watching it grow and the features increase. In the last year or two new IDE's have come out. They have massive feature sets, and many are great tools. I have not been able to leave the comfort of Sublime 3. I have attempted to use some of these other massive programs. Only to find them to be a massive bottleneck on some of our older systems/small VM ware instances. I have found it nearly impossible to embrace an alternative as I would not be able to use that alternative in every environment that I work. I am a huge fan of Sublime. I do acknowledge that many new IDE's are making this a highly competitive market. If you need a consistent editing experience. You can literally run Sublime off a thumb drive and carry it everywhere with you! Sublime is the most consistent editor I have used.

PROS

I like that is lightweight. It barely uses resources. It boots in a flash. It is great on multiple OS's. No matter if I am on OSX/Linux/Windows I can have my familiar editing experience with me. It has extensive plugin options. You can customize the software in a flash using the built-in command-line style extension loader.

CONS

The system for installing extensions is great and easy, but it is not robust on features. You need to do your homework outside of sublime to figure out if it is the right extension for you. You also need to consult these outside websites to even get a good picture of what all extension options are out there.

Reasons for switching to Sublime Text

I liked the look and feel of the UX as well as the customization. During that period (2015 ish) the new features that were being implemented in Sublime were very exciting.

An Excellent Text Editor: Sublime Text

Overall, Sublime Text is an excellent text editor for coding. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants an easy-to-use and efficient way to write code.

PROS

Sublime Text is an incredibly powerful and intuitive text editor that offers a host of features for customizing and streamlining the coding experience. The interface is both user-friendly and highly customizable. The auto-completion feature is especially helpful for quickly typing out code.

CONS

While Sublime Text offers a lot of features, it can be a bit costly compared to other text editors. Additionally, the plugins and extensions can be a bit difficult to install and some of them can be buggy.

Sublime Text

Sublime Text is a fast and easy-to-use text editor, ideal for developers and IT professionals. It is versatile and extensible thanks to its many third-party plugins. While it may lack some advanced features, this does not affect its overall quality as a solid and reliable text editor. I highly recommend Sublime Text for any text editing or software development project.

PROS

Sublime Text is a high-quality text editor that I used for two years as a web developer. What I like most about Sublime Text is its speed and ease of use. It is very easy to navigate and manipulate large text files thanks to its ability to open multiple tabs and maintain a buffer of opened files. I also appreciate the syntax highlighting, multiple cursors selection, and advanced search and replace, which have allowed me to work more efficiently. The third-party plugins are also very useful and have added great value to my experience using the editor.

CONS

The only drawback I encountered while using Sublime Text is the lack of some advanced features such as built-in debugging and version control features. Although these features are not essential for basic text editing, they may be necessary for more advanced development tasks. Additionally, there was a learning curve for me when I transitioned from using some other popular text editors to Sublime Text, as some key features were not available or were different in Sublime Text.

Sublime Text

PROS

As a Technician, I find Sublime Text to be a great choice because of its extensive customization options. It enables me to modify the interface to fit my needs, as well as to customize the syntax highlighting, auto-completion, and other features. Its package manager makes it easy to find and install plugins and packages. Additionally, Sublime Text has a fast, responsive UI and supports a wide variety of programming languages, making it ideal for developers who need to work with multiple languages. Moreover, its support for multiple platforms makes it a great choice for developers who need to work on different operating systems.

CONS

One of the things I like least about Sublime Text is that it can be difficult to customize the user interface. There are some settings which can be changed, but there are not as many options as in some other text editors.

Really Good Code Editor

The Sublime Text is the first editor of my coding career, I really loved this product because I made my first projects (very silly and easy projects) with Sublime Text.

PROS

The Sublime Text is easy to use, easy to instal and you can write code for free (if you are just writing code, you don't need to buy license), also it is very easy to instal and has some useful features

CONS

in my opinion the Sublime Text is the good code editor, but it is perfect for beginners, for professionals Sublime Text is useless because it has no all the features what developers need.

Good text editor, with a few bells and whistles

Even though I don't use it as my main text editor, it's my preferred option when I want to make quick changes in small projects. Its clean and simple UI make it easy to work and switch between projects, and I've never had to worry about memory consupmtion. From time to time I miss having an integrated terminal or a debugger, but I really appreciate its minimalist approach; you end up decoupling your development tools, which in consequence boosts your productivity.

PROS

- it has a clean and intuitive user interface, which makes it easy to use - the UI can be customized with themes and fonts - it has autocomplete and indenting integrated, which boosts your productivity while programming - it has a "projects" feature, which can be helpful if you have to work on multiple projects - it's available in Windows, Mac and Linux - you can extend its functionality with plugins - it's lightweight

CONS

- the "projects" feature, although helpful, can be a little hard to set up - it doesn't have as many plugins as other text editors such as Visual Studio Code - there is no marketplace for searching and installing plugins - it doesn't have an integrated terminal - it doesn't have an integrated debugger - it doesn't have any kind of integration with version control tools sush as Git - it's not free. Although no features are locked behind a paywall and there's no time limit for the evaluation period, a pop-up appears periodically prompting you to buy a license, which could be bothersome for some people - it's not open source, which some people won't tolerate

Reasons for switching to Sublime Text

I needed a text editor with a simpler and more aesthetic UI, which Notepad++ lacked.

Simple, Yet Powerful

I started using Sublime Text in 2010 at design school, and it opened a whole new world of coding for me. There may be cheaper or more powerful text editors out there, but nothing feels better to me than Sublime Text.

PROS

Don't let the simple interface throw you off: Sublime Text can do just about anything, as long as you're willing to spend some time configuring it. The free version is plenty powerful for most front and backend development, and the purchase price is acceptable if you need more features.

CONS

The initial setup of "packages" to get Sublime Text started can be a little daunting, even to simply start editing HTML or CSS. But there is a world of packages that you can connect to and install instantly, for free. You just need to understand how this works.

Reason for choosing Sublime Text

Sublime Text is more powerful and easy to customize, with excellent code hinting.

Reasons for switching to Sublime Text

Sublime Text was simply more powerful.

One of the best multi use text editor for every individual

Sublime Text is a great tool to have and use. I have been using this tool for more than 4 years. Even if I have other text editor Sublime Text is the one I always have in my system. It's a great tool, you must try this if you haven't used it yet.

PROS

Sublime Text is a great replacement of any other text editor in the market. The best part in sublime text is its black based theme. The multi line editing feature is a saviour. It also support multiple plugins for different programming language which makes it a one stop editor if you are a full stack developer. Multiple plugin for auto-formatting is pretty awesome in Sublime text. The inbuilt feature to rename, add, delete files and folder is great here.

CONS

The global search is not great compared to other text editor. You get some unwanted results also while searching. Downloading plugin is also not a simple task. It can be made more simple for the ease of user for end user.

Reasons for switching to Sublime Text

The global search is awesome in visual studio and the inbuilt console is also great.

Sublime-Simplicity is the Best Editor.

It has been my Editor Since 2015, when I switched from Eclipse. Sublime is Simple and easy to code text editor which is best suited for Professional as well as Educational Programmers. With various Themes Binding, I didnot get bored with the Coding Stuffs.

PROS

1. The Built in Packages which comes as a part of Package Control are awesome. 2. The Build-System support for languages is commendable. 3. The Themes and user design is also awesome with adjustable editor and debugger window. 4. The Key bindings for Github, switchings within projects or between projects is easier. 5. Most Suited for Python and C++.

CONS

1. Community Followers for Sublime are decreasing with New Products being launched. 2. Less features included for Functional Programming Languages like Scheme, Ocaml and Haskell.

Reason for choosing Sublime Text

As my title says, "Simplicity". As a programmer, you should customise your own editor.

Reasons for switching to Sublime Text

1. Bored with the Key Bindings. 2. Bored with the Programming Language Java.
