Sublime Text: Sublime Text is a lightweight and fast text editor known for its speed and simplicity. It offers a wide range of plugins and customization options, making it suitable for Python development when paired with the right plugins.

Sublime is a massive improvement in my opinion, and cross platform. It's not free but you can use a personal license at work and on multiple machines.

Starting with PHP can feel like navigating through fog, with complex syntax making you feel lost in a maze of code. This phase requires you to learn the basics of the PHP language, deeply understanding its syntax, features, and design patterns, including variables, data types, functions, classes and objects, namespaces, etc. From variables to classes, progressively deepen your understanding of PHP's core knowledge. It's advisable to combine the official PHP documentation and online tutorials to build a solid foundation. Resources and tools to consider: PHP official documentation, PHP manual, online tutorials, PHPStorm, and other Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). Consider practicing basic coding with PHPStorm and Sublime Text.

The format of the test files themselves is inspired by the relatively new initiative by the Sublime Text team when they introduced a new grammar file format called Sublime Syntax and – more importantly – a way to unit test grammars. It’s using some lovely human-friendly magic comments that allow to specify what scopes should the grammar file produce for a given position on a given line.

I hear you, but they've all moved along in leaps and bounds. Some options if you ever look again -

* ElementaryOS(https://elementary.io/)

I’ve seen Raycast adjacent apps for Linux, but I don’t know what the current go-to all the kids are using these days. I used Quicksilver on OS X back in the day, which kind of defined the category I think. But these days I try to keep it simple.

Elementary OS seems to be trying to solve for the design issue, but it’s not as polished as macOS and there are still all the 3rd party apps to contend with. I’ve tried it, and it didn’t have me considering a full time switch.

For me, one of the big things keeping me on macOS is the sync between devices. 20 years ago it seemed much easier to move to Linux, because I didn’t have to worry about my contacts, calendar, etc being in sync everywhere. Having all that stuff, and the handoff between devices, just work is a huge benefit. There are probably ways to sync various things between iOS and Linux, but then researching all the options, setting it up, and keeping up on it all, becomes a hobby. That’s not a hobby I want at this stage of my life.

I thought ElementaryOS was dead due to infighting between the two cofounders, but it still seems to be going: https://elementary.io/

(I installed it on one box a few years ago and liked it, but moved back to Ubuntu once I learned about its conflict in the team.)

As an alternative to the other (great) suggestions, check out ElementaryOS.

But get an old laptop, download and install on it https://elementary.io/, or PopOS or Debian (they all resemble macOS) or whatever distro you like the most. And start tinkering.

I would suggest installing elementaryOS inside a VM, and follow their getting started guide

Elementary OS e un distro de Linux cu aspect de macos

Maybe take a look at https://elementary.io/? It was one of the better "out of the box" linux distros when I was last using linux.

It warms my heart seeing all my fellow linux users here! 😊 I personally use elementary OS because the desktop is pretty 🥺. Also, the lead of the project is a trans woman!
