It turned out to be not at all a trivial task to find a native IDE for HTML, CSS, JavaScript.
Almost perfect for my requirements Visual Web Developer 2010 Express .
But it has several disadvantages:
1. Problem with file encodings.
2. Doesn't know about HTML5, Canvas.
3. Only under Windows.

All other IDEs that I have seen are geared towards other languages (for example, Eclips for Java).
Of course, you can red-eye a night or two and make something out of vim, notepad ++ and similar editors that will resemble an IDE. Well, there is syntax highlighting, auto-completion, etc.

From all of the above, the question follows.
Is there an IDE that meets the following requirements:
1. Free
2. Cross-platform (desirable)
3. Code completion
4. Typing hints (functions, keywords, variables that I declared earlier, etc.)
5. Syntax highlighting
6. “Knowledge” of HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Canvas
7. Debug, Watcher, BrakePoint, etc…
8. Work out of the box
9. FTP support (preferred)

JetBrains embeds good js/html/css editors into its IDEs, javascript in PyCharm (at least a year ago) was better than in Eclipse with any plugins. All points except the first are fulfilled; about free - there are free licenses for open source.

NetBeans, Zend Stuod (Eclipse)
*nix has KDevelop (KDE)

> Eclipse, like NetBeans, is built for Java.
This is not entirely true, eclipse is a universal IDE, in particular, for your case it is enough to install:
* Eclipse Web Developer Tools
* JavaScript Development Tools
Or you can just download:
Eclipse IDE for JavaScript Web Developers
As for Java support - earlier it could be cut out completely, yes and it was not in the platform assembly (there, in fact, there was nothing at all), but now, unfortunately, this is not the case (well, or I could not find an empty assembly).

There are huge advantages (among them free and financial power of the developer)
There are annoying inconveniences (the editor is young and not entirely trivial)

NetBeans has a bunch of plugins for such tasks, even zencoding.
"Service" -> "Plugins", tabs "Available plugins" and "Settings" look.
I myself work on NetBeans, I'm satisfied with everything except speed. But this seems to be a common disease for Java applications.

Well, did you find something for your needs?
I used TopStyle Pro once, but it's only for Windows. But quite a long time ago I switched to OS X and now I have to typeset and I can’t find anything suitable.
I especially liked the top-style feature that you click on a class in an HTML file and immediately move to the desired piece of the CSS file without delay.

I have been writing in JS for a long time, I have been looking for a good IDE for a long time, I have tried a lot of things. For the last 2 years I have been sitting on WebStorm from JetBrains. Haven't seen anything better than him.

I really like phpdesigner 8 , the only negative that is quite critical for me is the lack of a dark theme.

Netbeans quite triples after NP++. Still would not hang only
