Overall Satisfaction with Sublime Text
Several teams in my department use Sublime Text as a code editor in addition to using Visual Studio or Visual Code. Sublime Text has the benefit of being lightweight and flexible, so if you want to use it as just a text editor, you can. If you want to use it for working with JavaScript, you can add a plugin or two, and you're good to go.
- It's lightweight so it isn't clunky or slow.
- It's flexible; you can add or remove plugins to use it how it best suits you.
- You can integrate compilers with it.
- You have to add plugins to make it a functional IDE (it isn't an IDE out of the box).
- You do need to research to find the right plugin(s) for your use case(s).
- Lightweight and easy to use.
- Configurable per user so nobody's stuck in a one-size-fits-all that doesn't actually fit.
- Handles large files well.
- It's a great Swiss army knife type of tool for various uses on various teams.
- Notepad++, NetBeans and Microsoft Visual Studio Code
Sublime Text has a bit more flexibility and doesn't take up as much space or memory as some of the larger IDEs. Notepad++ is customizable too, but Sublime Text is better suited for code editing in my experience.
