I've always been a IDE person, and been using Jetbrains Intellij IDEA for donkey years. But as their new licensing model is really not beneficial to keep up with it I tried several others for a while;
I had a Ruby on Rails project and also needed to something in Python and fix something in PHP. So a good cross section....
So Eclipse is very popular, but I don't get it. I find it very slow, can barely keep up with my typing both on my Surface Pro and my MacBook Air.....
Then tried Sublime Text, its very good, but also a bit cumbersome in ways like the package installer and stuff....
But for the last three weeks I've been using Atom a free hackable editor....And wow I love it. It is so well put together, super fast, good code completion across a project and syntax highlighting.
I love Atom so much that I'm giving up on my IDE subscription....Still using XCode for IOS and Visual Studio for Windows services....
