Overall Satisfaction with Sublime Text

It's used by personal preference by a subset of developers. It's a fast, lightweight text editor that I personally use for front-end development. I prefer it over other editors simply because I like the interface and its relative speed. Other developers also use it primarily for Javascript or CSS/HTML development.
  • Syntax highlighting for JavaScript is great.
  • Distraction free mode.
  • Not sure if I just am not using it right but JavaScript syntax error highlighting isn't obvious.
  • Doesn't remember word wrap as a setting.
  • As a front-end dev, not having to wait for the app to launch to get started on coding is priceless. Not sure how else to put it but the time saved is a massive plus.
More reliable and intuitive than TextMate or Atom and more feature-filled than an Emacs. The colors/syntax highlighting is superior.
Never had to use their customer support before. There is ample documentation online so it's straightforward to find a solution to any problem you might encounter. For example, I needed to convert a string of HTML code to a properly formatted HTML file to "modify." Easy to do when there are so many users of the product who have needed to do that same thing before.
