My favorite code editor outside vim is vs code. I was pumped when
the other teachers and I agreed on requiring it for our JS course. It has already proven itself for
beginners:
fast enough for almost every student’s computer 🏎
stream lined class with both teachers and students working with the same editor on both mac and
windows
live share has allowed us to go in and help students fix bugs directly in the code
live server has simplified how students work locally on very basic html + js classwork / homework
