Editors and IDEs

We strongly advise you against using gedit, notepad, or other primitive editors. Switch to a professional-level environment or editor, such as the following:

• GNU Emacs. A powerful and freely available editor that is very customizable, and comes with a lot of support for writing and editing code. If you use Emacs, you will likely still need to know how to compile at the command line.
• VIM. Another powerful and freely available editor that is very customizable and has support for writing and editing code. Same caveat as for Emacs.
• Sublime Text. An increasingly popular cross-platform editor. Not free; comes with evaluation period.
• MS Visual Code. Another increasingly popular cross-platform editor. Free!
