   Top Positive Comment by Chris Lamke · Jul 1, 2017

   Notepad++ has built-in support for many languages and a great plugin system for more.

   Vim vs Atom Comments

   Positive comment by Guest · May 18, 2017

   Vim offers unlimited customization and consumes very less memory, it supports execution of commands from vim itself and with the right plugins works almost like an ide

   Negative comment by Guest · Jul 2, 2018

   While Vim is powerful, it’s not an easy replacement for a GUI-based text editor.

   Positive comment by Conner Vieira · Jan 20, 2022

   Vim is one of the most lightweight text editors on the planet. If you want to edit plain text or code, and you want to do it efficiently, Vim's keyboard-centric design is great.

   ghostwriter vs Atom Comments

   Negative comment by Matt Adamek · Apr 18, 2022

   One-way relationship. Atom is an extensible IDE (Integrated Development Environment) made for developers. It may be used as a markdown editor, being an alternative to ghostwriter. Ghostwriter is a single-purpose markdown editor.
