4. Find an editor

Before we start developing, you need an editor. Since we’re mostly using Python & Django, you want to find a generic editor or a Python IDE.

Here are some editors we’re using or have used internally:

• Sublime Text

• Visual Studio Code

• Atom

• Pycharm

Feel free to ask the team which editors we use, then install your own preferred editor.

Note

Please note, all the editors have their benefits and disadvantages. For example, Sublime Text is highly customisable and very “hacker friendly” since you do most things via keyboard, but has no IDE out of the box. Pycharm on the other hand provides a very smart IDE, but might not be as customisable as its competitors.
