What is the best free text editor if color helps?

Question

I'm trying to find ways to practice creating my own code outside of SoloLearn and it's become painfully obvious that I have a lot of syntax errors without the coloring of components. Any ideas? Free is important....I work in education = no money 😂

Answer 1

Notepad++
https://notepad-plus-plus.org

Atom
https://atom.io

Visual Studio Code

Answer 2

Brackets is free and good... There is also Sublime Text which is my favourite but its not free but it doesn't have a evaluation period too

Answer 3

There are many text editors available like Notpad++, Atom, Sublime Text & much more. My favourite is Sublime Text as it is much powerful text editor as it has numerous customization options like choosing different themes & also has different plugins by which you can beautify your code. You should give it a try!

Answer 4

Try out brackets. It's free and I personally feel that it has much more color friendly themes and syntax highlighting. Download it from here: www.brackets.io

Answer 5

notepad ++, maybe.

Answer 6

I really like sublime, has the power and intelligence of brackets and the easiness of notepad++. But this is more like a personal choice, try a bunch of editors and see what fit you best. Good luck :)

Answer 11

Notepad++ for me :D

Answer 12

 Atom Sublime text 3

Answer 13

I like Sublime, but since I'm not going to pay its licence I opted for Atom. Specially for beginners the difference is not remarkable.

Answer 17

If you want a Feature Rich Text Editor then you could try:
1) Brackets
2) Atom
If you love simplicity then you could try:
3) Sublime Text
Its good for all programming languages as well...
4) Notepad ++

Protip: if you want to work with github for code collaboration then, Atom is best for you.
Protip 2: IDEs are also great option. They include lots of great features that text editor don't have.
Such as:
Eclipse
Netbeans
Aptana Studio
Geany
Happy Coding...😊
