Rewrite editor lists in editor-setup.md by georgerahul24 · Pull Request #46 · Akuli/python-tutorial
I think we should rewrite the editor lists. Maybe we should have 3 categories instead of 2:
- Relatively simple text editors that also run your code (VScode, Thonny, Porcupine, Geany, ...)
- IDEs and editors that are likely too advanced for a beginner (Vim, Emacs, PyCharm, ...)
- Just text editors that don't run your code (gedit, pluma, nano, notepad++, ...)
We should also mention that it doesn't matter which editor you use: everyone has their favorite editor, and there's no "right" or "wrong" choice for what editor to use.
Also, even though I am the main author of Porcupine, I don't think we should recommend it over other editors in its category. We should instead tell people to have a quick look at each editor in the list and pick their favorite.
What do you think?
