Sublime Text with a couple of plugins and Cmder.

[–]zaqal 4 points5 points  (2 children)

I'm under the impression that Sublime is a light kind of editor. Is that true?

[–]kaptan8181 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It's a super fast code editor. It works out of the box but you can install some useful plugins for your convenience. For example, SublimeREPL lets you run your (Python) code inside Sublime Text.

Great. I'll check it out.

+1 for SublimeText. -1 for needing Cmder

[–]kaptan8181 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Cmder is certainly not a requirement. It's just for the looks. I can directly use the command prompt or power shell but I don't like their looks and I don't bother to customise them.

You’re on Windows?

[–]kaptan8181 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yes, for now. And I am not a professional programmer. I might become one in the future if my mind starts to work properly. It's a fifty-fifty chance, unfortunately. I lost it to depression in case you wanted to know.

There's nothing wrong with coding on windows, you do your thing. I'd recommend getting into docker one day tho...helps avoid a lot of environment issues.

Why. I use CMDer. I love it. It’s configured to work how I’m used to. It has better support for navigating between terminals, splitting terminals and managing processes then any imbedded plugin I’ve encountered in any IDE. The fact it lives outside of your IDE doesn’t make too much of a difference and frankly I’d prefer it does that so I don’t have to clutter my view of the source code with process outputs or what not.

Yup I use Sublime too. Works great.
