  • Thanks for the suggestions. I have not tried the recent vscode. I had tried it way back in uni and really didn’t like it at the time so never tried it again but I have also heard positive things about it from some other people so probably time to reevaluate. I think for me, must haves are: it must work with python and C minimal. Autocompletion, function definition, goto, code linting are the first things that come to mind (don’t need debugger and I guess that is not an editor’s job, python has its own module and for C there is gdb for advanced needs). In VIM, I could achieve these via plugins ofcourse.

    I also haven’t tried Helix but Neovim was on my mind for a while. Are Helix and Neovim different from each other in terms of editor mode styles? I will also check Pulsar (continuation of Atom), hopefully soon I will get an editor that I feel at home with.
