Most light weight editor for everyday editing

It can edit large files without breaking a sweat. It has a great repository of plugins available to use for various needs. Clutter free and clean user interface.

Vim: Old but gold

The same with neovim, I really like the extensible scripting language and the large ecosystem that can be used / repurposed for your needs. It's not the easiest editor to pick up and use. But it's the editor that often encourages workflow and productivity to happen when you're writing code on a daily basis. The features at your disposable are second to none and, while always imitated, very few editors can match it's prowess of the king. These are just the few features I'm leveraging to make myself productive: - various modes: visual / execute / normal - text motions - keybindings - buffers - plugins - registers - number increments - search / replace - marks - macros - vim script - plugin Never mind that I haven't even fully utilize the following: - sessions - folds - netrw (windows) - splits - tabs - global buffer search / replace - tags - remote edit - ... etc
