Are you a webmaster, developer, programmer or just take time to learn something new, in this section I have for you some of the most famous code editors for Linux.
One of the biggest unknowns that arose when I started my migration from Windows to Linux was knowing what alternatives I had to carry out my programming practices.
This is where many of the newbies or people who don't dare to make the change because they are afraid that the code editors for Linux will not work.
Well here is where they are wrong because in Linux we have many tools for programming, even many of these are cross-platform.
Code editors are very important when developing any application It can make your job easier by providing tons of useful features for developers that provide features like, plugins to have additional functionality, autocomplete that fill in tags, classes, and even the code snippets without having to write it.
