Overall Satisfaction with Sublime Text

Sublime Text is used as one of my favorite text editors, we use it daily to take notes, parse text files or write short scripts in various languages. Some people on my team use it as their default IDE for development.
  • Wide variety of plugins
  • It has LINT for several languages by default.
  • It can detect the type and programming language of the file and show code highligths based on this, wich is good.
  • Customizable themes
  • If you close the program, the next time you run it, files that were open in the previous session will be displayed again, even those that have not been saved.
  • Lacks of printing function
  • Some basic functions like "compare file" do not exist by default, requiring installation of third party plugins.
  • It has a cheap license cost.
  • It's simple to use, meaning more productivity.
  • Notepad++
I think Sublime Text is more elegant and simple to use.
Summing up the good things that were pointed out in this review, the rate is based on ease of use, program features and community support.

Did Sublime Text live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Sublime Text go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Sublime Text again?

Yes

If you need a light and simple text editor, Sublime Text is one of the best options. Even if some functionality is missing by default, you can hardly find a community plugin to implement it. You can use it as an IDE for development, but I do not recommend it due to the lack of more robust functionality for this use.
