is a piece of software that you download and install on your computer, or you access online through your web browser, that allows you to write and manage text, especially the text that you write to build a web site. The text editor has to be one of the most important tools you can use as an aspiring web developer
CHOOSING AN EDITOR Most important features are code completion, syntax highlighting, lots of themes to prevent eye strain and the ability to choose from a healthy selection of extensions available when you need them
Code completion allows you to start typing, and the code completion feature will display possible suggestions based on what you originally typed. This saves you time by providing a choice, rather than allowing you to finish typing and possibly encounter typos
The next feature that you should look for in a text editor is a nice series of themes. These themes will allow you to change the color of the background of your text editor, the series of colors in your text, and sometimes themes will affect other aspects of your text editing software as well. Usually, web developers use a dark background and brightly colored text. Dark theme is easier on the eyes.
DO all text editors have mostly the same qualities? Are all text editiors able manage all coding languages? Do lighter themes for editiors make a difference?
