Sublime Text

Sublime Text is a proprietary text editor prized for its raw speed and minimal footprint, even when working with very large files that would slow down heavier IDEs. Its Goto Anything feature lets developers jump to files, symbols, or lines with just a few keystrokes. Multiple selections allow simultaneous editing of many lines or instances of a word at once, a feature that has since influenced editors across the industry. A Python-based plugin API and Package Control repository let developers extend the editor with community-built packages. While it lacks the built-in language server integrations and native AI features of newer editors, its speed and low resource usage keep it popular among developers who prioritize a lightweight, distraction-free environment.
