Sublime is what I moved from Notepad++ from.
It has good extensions and is very fast.
These days I use Visual Studio Code.
It's separate to Visual Studio. Code is open source and runs on Linux and OSX as well.
There's a ton of extensions and it's super flexible.
- JediPig 5y agoST4 is about to be released. The LSP plugin in ST4 brings it to the level of VSCode. I find this good news, mainly, i hate electron apps. ST4 speed is legendary.
- anaganisk 5y agoTechnically vscscode isn't open source completely, it has many proprietary features.
- dagw 5y agoWhich features are closed source? I thought the only difference the source on GitHub and the binary you download from Microsoft was branding and configuration.
- oaiey 5y agoSome of the extensions .. C# Debugger, Remote Server on WSL, SSH, Docker, whatever, Liveshare The modern magic stuff. but the core editor is like you described. Oh, and the market place itself.
- jhgb 5y agoApparently the official C++ extension is not licensed to run in Codium either...although technically it seems to work in Codium just fine. Don't ask how I know. ;)
- TeMPOraL 5y agoAlso C++ language server, Python language server... Which is kind of annoying to me, because the whole value proposition of VS Code to me is that it drives language sever development, which lets me use Emacs instead of VS Code :). Fortunately, Clang can cross-compile for Windows while pretending to be MSVC, so I figured out how to make clangd work with MSVC-specific codebases, and I'm good for now.
- oaiey 5y agoI think they are factoring some core capabilities of Visual studio into language servers and vscode gets a subset. Do they are protecting big VisualStudio.
