Overall Satisfaction with Sublime Text

I cannot speak for the whole organization but I use it as my second choice of text editor for software development work. It's a lightweight, free text editor which allows me to quickly open any code-related file extensions such as .py .json .js .java, etc. So this is basically the business problem solved by this product.
  • Quick to open and use.
  • Light on memory.
  • Free to use.
  • Lot of plugins.
  • Can open any coding related file extension.
  • Better integration of command line tools
  • Better user interface
  • Intellisense is missing
  • Free of cost
  • Fast and efficient
  • Coding related plugins
  • I was able to do software development easily on Sublime.
I think Sublime is the most efficient text editor in terms of memory usage, especially compared to VSC. However, VSC is feature-rich and has almost all the features of IDE such as debugging tools and IntelliSense. These features are missing in sublime. There are plugins to support many of the development needs but it still isn't a native solution.

Yes

Would you buy Sublime Text again?

Yes

For a developer, it can be really useful for writing code, especially if you have a machine that has less memory. If I'm not wrong, Sublime is written in c++ which makes it very fast on any platform, especially compared to modern text editors like Visual Studio Code or Atom, which rely on web technologies. Also, it can open any text-based file format so one can use it to quickly view files.
