Many of us loves to use light weight code editors rather than using heavy weight IDE's. Light weight code editors are really useful for beginners and also for those who have a low end PC but want to code.
How will this post help you??
If you have a low end pc or you don't want to use any IDE & looking for a good code editor then this blog can help you, in here I'll be telling you about some good code editors you can use.
1. Sublime Text
Sublime Text is one of the best code editor's that I would recommend you if you even have a really slow PC than also Sublime Text will work super smoothly without any lag, Sublime Text has a huge support for packages to install + it support's multiple coding language's such as Java, JavaScript, Python, C/C++, and many more, the list is big.
2. Visual Studio Code
VS Code is a open source code editor developed by Microsoft. It is a free code editor with support for multiple languages, you just need to download extension for it and you are good to go. VS Code has it's own market place where you can get multiple extensions like Flutter, Dart, Python, etc. It's also a favorite code editor of many developers. It's an code editor with features of an IDE.
3. Notepad++
As I told this blog contains some best Code Editor's, So here's another one and it's the best one for low end/slow pc's. Notepad++ is a free source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GNU General Public License. This editor is written in C++ and this also ensures you have a good executing speed & and also uses very low CPU power.

VSCode is my preferrred editor, but it is far from lightweight. Linux + i3 runs in about 450M ram. That's an OS with window manager! Start up VSCode with a node project and it goes to 1.2G.
Vim also left out.
Ohkay!
I remembered about VIM but it's not beginner friendly that's why I didn't mentioned it in here
Sublime text is very good for everyone
Where's Vim?
Yeah! I remember about it but it's not that beginner friendly that's why I didn't mentioned it in here.
