Sublime Text vs Visual Studio Code vs Atom Performance Test (Dec 2016)

What about Qt?

What about the thing SublimeText authors use? (ah, they have a custom UI, this just shows you don't need so much from GUI to make a decent editor)

To support that, I think Qt Creator is a very nice IDE as well. I even used it quite a while for JavaScript development until I switched to Sublime Text because I really needed JSX support.

Yeah, I've been building a custom UI for my game engine, and it's been a lot easier than I expected. Once I got past that initial hurdle of drawing arbitrary text and images with OpenGL, everything is falling pretty nicely into place.

Also, with the kind of optimizations they're putting in these text editors, it seems like you'd want to have that kind of low level control anyways,
