I explored 5 code editors beyond VS Code, and one was clearly ahead
Source ↗ 👁 1 💬 0

There are plenty of alternatives out there, each with its own approach to writing and managing code. So, I decided to explore five options that caught my attention, from traditional text editors to AI-powered coding environments. I wanted to see what made each one worth considering, where they fell short, and whether any could offer a better everyday experience
