I'm a real noob when it comes to coding. And I can only give a perspective of a person who's just starting out.
VSCode scared the hell out of me and I'm not one to get easily scared with new things. Maybe cause I'm insanely curious about it that I was investigating on how to configure it to just give me an easy 'corrective' function, automatic 'pairing' of tags as well as the usual brackets and stuff. I still can't figure out how although there are barrages of resources on configurations in the Net. I can't seem to get any configurations right but I believe, perhaps I understood it wrongly (?). Especially since I'm just playing with JavaScript API and HTML for now, so...I can't brain advanced stuff just yet.
Atom has a beautiful interface and I tried it for a time, but some of the plugins I wanted to use can't be installed; maybe it's just my computer (?). But I am pretty sure it is as 'hackable' as they said; so many options to personalize it to your work.
Brackets is awesome and yes, it's very useful for front-end web development. I was very in love with the 'live preview' but for some reason, one day it did not work for me and I tried troubleshooting. Still could not find the reason why it did not work.
Now, I'm staying with Notepad++ since I just code simple stuff for exercises and tools for our GIS tasks at work. It's simple and for me, kinda 'idiot-proof'.
I am sure all the mentioned editors are awesome. As mentioned before, it comes down to what defaults you like better and which pre-existing workflow it takes to configure it to your need that you prefer more.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
