Visual Studio Code VS sublime_text

For IDE-heavy teams, BYOK (bring your own key) can be interesting, no matter whether you live in WebStorm or VS Code. On the JetBrains side, the JetBrains AI plans and Junie BYOK docs allow it, and most VS Code AI extensions offer the same idea: keep the IDE, connect provider keys, pay the provider.

One can (maybe, probably) disable copilot completely in vscode: chat.disableAIFeatures

I am considering pinning whatever the earliest version in which this setting was introduced. I can't think of a single feature VSCode has implemented in the last three years that I couldn't go without. The binary for 121 is like 50% larger than 120.

Option 1: Raw editing in IDE. You open the .md file in VS Code or whatever you use. Syntax highlighting shows you the structure. Maybe you toggle a preview pane. This works for quick edits but becomes painful for anything involving tables, diagrams, or complex formatting.

The Google Cloud Shell- available on every Google Cloud project — comes with a built-in code editor that allows you to browse file directories, view and edit files, with continued access to the Cloud Shell. The Cloud Shell Editor is available by default with every Cloud Shell instance, and is based on Code OSS.

You'll need Python 3.8+ and pip for the quickstart, with venv recommended for isolation. Install the requests library for HTTP calls. VS Code with the Python extension works well as an editor, though PyCharm or Sublime Text work equally well. You'll also need a free Foxit developer account.

Now here's the key point: Antigravity 2.0 is a huge departure from 1.0 in the sense that it is functionally no longer based on Microsoft's VS Code. That means a huge majority of all the personalizations from 1.0 will not carry over to 2.0.

There's a one-line pull request open against microsoft/vscode. It changes the default value of a setting called git.addAICoAuthor from "off" to "all". The PR is titled, with no embellishment, "Enabling ai co author by default." It was opened on April 15, 2026 by cwebster-99, a member of the VS Code team. By the time the HN thread on the PR hit 1,239 points and 646 comments in early May, the practical effect was already shipping: every commit you make in VS Code, regardless of whether you wrote the code yourself or had Copilot write it, gets a Co-authored-by: Copilot trailer in the commit message.

I originally tried my best to find the 'perfect', light-weight IDE for Linux. I tried Sublime Text, and I was fine with it for a while. But, I eventually decided to strip out the IDE, and instead, simply code in the terminal.

Sublime also has packages. https://packagecontrol.io/

Sublime's de facto package control repository is handled by one guy in his spare time as he works for Uber, not any Sublime employee: https://packagecontrol.io/about

VS Code Marketplace seems to have far more protections in place: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/configure/extensions/exte...

It also appears that Sublime doesn't have any sandboxing: https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/6915

Be kind. Don't sneer. Edit out swipes.

Choose a code editor like Visual Studio Code or Sublime Text—or an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like IntellliJ. Modern IDEs offer advanced features such as intelligent code completion, real-time feedback, and seamless integration of development tools, which significantly improve programmer productivity. Look for features such as syntax highlighting, plugins, support for multiple languages, and an integrated terminal to enhance productivity and streamline your workflow. Many modern IDEs also support languages like Visual Basic, especially for visual programming and drag-and-drop application development. Note that Visual Studio Code can in a way be set up to be a fully-fledged IDE, by way of extensions.

There are very performant and capable options like SublimeText out there https://www.sublimetext.com/

IDE: Use tools like Visual Studio Code, PhpStorm, or Sublime Text for a more efficient coding experience.

Sublime Text is renowned for its speed and efficiency. When combined with the RemoteCollab package, it becomes a formidable tool for collaborative development by enabling:

Maybe you can priorize https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/1649. As a heavy LSP user, I find it very inconvenient not being able to copy text out of popups.

2. Sublime Text

Let's play around with HTML a little bit using your code editor, like Atom or VS Code, and there's also Sublime Text.
