Still using Sublime...

Ever wondered why you get bored while coding. The problem could be with the code editor you decided to use. Some people argue that sublime is text is fast while an editor such VSCode is fast enough.

Any day anytime I would pick VSCode as my text editor. The editor has powerful developing tools and you can customize every feature to your liking and install any number of third-party extensions, supports macOS, Linux, and Windows, support for hundreds of languages and has robust and extensible architecture.

Why do you say that one editor is "boring" compared to another, and are you saying that Sublime doesn't have benefits like speed when you compare it to VSCode?

I mean, I agree, there's nothing generally impressive about Sublime's speed, but if I were to pick a reason to use one, it'd be VSCode because it's free, and Sublime isn't :)

I am not saying Sublime is boring. The point I am bringing across is some people find coding boring because of the code editor they are using. I have used both code editors, Sublime only offers colour code for the free version while VSCode has an extensive choices of extensions for free, they come a long way in helping developers move quickly when coding and enjoy the process.
