I’ve used VS Code for a long time, but have recently grown weary of Microsoft’s approach to OSS. I’ve checked out VS Codium which seems like it might be a great option.

What text editor are you using?

    i want to “collapse//expand” indented parts in programs … someone recommended Atom is it good ? the old “Kate” (2010) i used was buggy on this use. See also : Source-code editor

    Edit : Since many of you here use Kate, updating my decade old Kate may solve this for me.

      I use kate now and it works fantastically! It has code collapse actually, and I dont feel like it is buggy now. Also, a kde project :p

        KWrite is the new Kate (?) :
        1 from Kate’s web page
        2 only a fraction of Kate’s bloat
        3 it runs great ! “cream” (from vim gVim), is also small but is broken on my system.
        4 KWrite has all bells and whistles (+ vi-mode)

      I do like Atom, although there’s no other editor that I’ve used as much to compare (except maybe saying that I find it as good as a tex editor as TeXStudio, TeXMaker and TeXShop). It does allow to collapse/expand

      I dropped Atom because of performance issues in med to large scale projects. imho it’s ok as a text editor but not an IDE
