I love Gitlens because it allows me to detect who wrote the code that I am reading, and this is really useful because when I have doubts about the code, I know who to talk to. This extension includes a lot of cool functionalities of Git in Visual Studio Code: "GitLens simply helps you better understand code" says Eric Amodio, the creator of the extension. So a friend of mine told me that maybe Visual Studio Code could fit my needs, and he was right. I was enjoying Atom, but in some cases, my computer at the time couldn't handle it very well and it was getting a bit laggy to open the text editor or work with it. At first, I started with Sublime Text, later the pretty UI of Atom hooked me, and for the last year I have been coding with Visual Studio Code. I have tried different text editors in my career and was always looking for the perfect one. It may be a tough decision, as a programmer, to choose a text editor, since it will be your main tool to do your work, and you will use it every day in your work-life.Įverybody has their favorite text editor, I have known people who use Vim, Notepad++, Sublime Text, Atom, and many others.
