JetBrains, SublimeText, VS Code, NeoVim, Nano! <3

Though I am not on Windows OS, but if you are, you may find the debugger of Visual Studio (non Code) quite awesome, too.

    Once you're comfortable with (neo)vim, is there any reason to use nano?

    NeoVim is a miracle, but is utterly rarely installed on machines, and especially on servers. Same as Micro.
    Nano is frequently pre-installed, sometimes even with syntax highlihgting at /usr/share, more comfortable than standard Vim in general, I believe.
