A list of less commonly known modern code editors which support modal editing.
Overview
In an earlier article, I talked about embedding Neovim in browsers and Visual Studio Code using Firenvim
and VSCode Neovim
. For developers, there are simply too many code editors for us to choose from. From Vim, Emacs till more modern code editors like Atom, Sublime, Neovim, VSCode just to name a few.
Personally, I would encourage developers to learn and use modal editing. Vim/Neovim supports this natively. For Emacs we have evil-mode,
and for VSCode we can use plugins like VSCodeVim
or VSCode Neovim
. Almost all modern code editors support modal editing in one way or another.
In this article let’s go through a few less commonly know modal code editors.
