What Is a Text Editor? And Why Does It Matter to Developers?
If you have Windows, you have access to the default Notepad application installed on your computer.
At some point, you would have used Notepad to replace Microsoft Word. But those who work with code understand that while it looks similar to Microsoft Word in terms of providing a writing space, Notepad can do more.
Most modern systems come with pre-installed basic text editor software like Notepad, and you can use them for more than just taking notes and creating documents.

Sublime Text is very lightweight out of the box and so only has basic features and does not support specific frameworks. For additional features you will need to install packages from Package Control. There appears to be a few for CodeIgniter: https://packagecontrol.io/search/codeigniter
