Quick opinion request: do we like Sublime as a free OS X text/code editor?

Seems legit.

Anything better/faster/awesomer for a geriatric Web 1.0 user?

I’ve been using Atom (https://atom.io/).

+1 for Hugo, if you’re comfortable on the command line then it’s very fast and very easy to use.

#55

I used Sublime until I learned that Atom has a built-in terminal, so I switched.

#56

Sublime development has also pretty much stagnated. Nearly everyone I know who used to develop on it has since switched to Atom.

#57

Just realized that Atom now has over 5000 packages available. Definitely seems to have caught up with Sublime.

VS Code is pretty cool too (saying this from osx). Used it mainly with unity for a recent project, but it’s obvioulsy great for web stuff. The debugger is awesome.

Atom is also the preferred editor for Tidal (unless you’re an emacs fan). The TidalCycles plugin that allows for single and multi-line execution exists for Atom, but not Sublime.

For Windows users, there’s also Notepad++ https://notepad-plus-plus.org/

Gonna swerve on over to Atom and have a look.

Okay, don’t laugh: what is Tidal exactly? I keep hearing about it/hearing good results.

Okay, so not a MaxMSP instrument or something like that.

Looked it up…once I had a sense of what I was even looking for.

Kind of makes sense.

I just wanted to say thanks to this thread I decided to use Hugo for my new blog, which is running on Amazon S3. I found Hugo very easy to use, and there are several nice themes (I used the minimalist hemingway theme on my site).

A new way to approach web development and hosting. Prices are very reasonable.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing!

I’ve used a bunch of the prototyping sites (jsfiddle/jsbin/codepen). All of them obfuscate the console/dev tools in a sort of annoying way to me. Curious how this treats that kind of thing.

Same here! Spent a couple of weeks moving my blog to github.io, and overhauling my artist website (now on S3 + cloudfront). Hugo is pretty quick to pick up and a pleasure to use!
