What's your editor of choice when coding sites for symphony? Are there any good solutions out there for Windows or do you use oXygen?

Sublime Text 2 is pretty sweet and a standard used on all 3 OS'

Notepad++ is simple to use too. This is a Windows based text editor though.

I learned about it from this community, in fact. Never looked back.

PhpStorm. If you also need PHP development. beside HTML / CSS / XSLT / etc, then PhpStorm becomes a necessity.

I use TextMate 2.

vladG, do you have the Open Source license of PhpStorm?

@brendo

Nope.

I enquiries for the Symphony team, but gave up after they couldn't grasp that we weren't Symfony. Also, as this site has paid support on it, it's an outright no from them.

paid support

Is that actually a thing?

The fact there is a section saying we do it was enough :(

Understandably so, but I'd like to know for sure whether or not there is paid support myself. I don't believe so. If there isn't I guess the relevant bits of the site should really be taken down.

Done.

Sublime Text 2. Any other suggestion is wrong :p

Edit: Apart from Sublime Text 3, which I now use. This suggestion is also valid.

I use Atom an Open Source Editor for Windows and Mac.

@symcms - Atom is essentially GitHub's attempt at creating Sublime Text 2 - so as a free option it is pretty great actually - and because GitHub are behind it it's not going anywhere any time soon.

I've heard that it's a bit slow/sluggish to use, i.e. performance isn't that hot, how are you finding it?

@nathanhornby - For me is a stable editor.

Atom is getting better in every release.

@brendo you can still use the EAP version.

or just vim :)
