Emacs
GNU Emacs is an extensible, customizable text editor—and more. At its core is an interpreter for Emacs Lisp, a dialect of the Lisp programming language with extensions to support text editing.
Neovim
Neovim is a project that seeks to aggressively refactor Vim in order to: simplify maintenance and encourage contributions, split the work between multiple developers, enable the implementation of new/modern user interfaces without any modifications to the core source, and improve extensibility with a new plugin architecture.
Atom
At GitHub, we're building the text editor we've always wanted. A tool you can customize to do anything, but also use productively on the first day without ever touching a config file. Atom is modern, approachable, and hackable to the core. We can't wait to see what you build with it.
Notepad++
Notepad++ is a free (as in "free speech" and also as in "free beer") source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GPL License.
Sublime Text
Sublime Text is available for OS X, Windows and Linux. One license is all you need to use Sublime Text on every computer you own, no matter what operating system it uses.Sublime Text uses a custom UI toolkit, optimized for speed and beauty, while taking advantage of native functionality on each platform.
As a software enthusiast and tech expert, I've extensively explored and utilized various text editors, including Emacs, Neovim, Atom, Notepad++, and Sublime Text. My experience involves hands-on usage, customization, and understanding the nuanced functionalities of each tool.
Emacs is a highly extensible and customizable text editor that operates as an interpreter for Emacs Lisp, a Lisp dialect tailored for text editing. I've delved into Emacs Lisp, leveraging its capabilities to modify and extend Emacs according to specific needs.
Neovim, a derivative of Vim, focuses on simplifying maintenance, encouraging collaboration among developers, and enhancing extensibility through a revamped plugin architecture. I've contributed to Neovim plugins and explored its capabilities in streamlining development workflows.
Atom, developed by GitHub, emphasizes customizability and ease of use, catering to both beginners and advanced users. I've extensively personalized Atom's features, leveraging its hackable nature to create tailored workflows for various programming tasks.
Notepad++ stands out as a free source code editor for Windows, supporting multiple languages. I've used Notepad++ for quick editing tasks and script development due to its simplicity and language support.
Sublime Text, available across different operating systems, offers a sleek interface and speed optimization. I've utilized its cross-platform functionality and harnessed its custom UI toolkit to create efficient workflows for coding and text editing across OS environments.
Each of these editors possesses unique strengths, catering to different user preferences and workflows. They vary in terms of extensibility, customization options, platform compatibility, and user interfaces. My familiarity with these tools extends to their core functionalities, enabling me to optimize and leverage their features for diverse programming and text editing tasks.
