What development environment is convenient and understandable for developing the first website?

Question

IDE

For the purpose of self-education and increased interest in web development, I decided to create a website from scratch. Please tell me an IDE for convenient visualization and error checking of html code. Google gives a lot of options, but I want to get information from knowledgeable people.

Answer 1

For your first web site, you are unlikely to need a full-fledged IDE. But an extremely lightweight and obedient code editor is quite suitable.
I recommend Sublime Text 3, it has been tested for years, it weighs extremely little, plug-ins are over the roof (packagecontrol.io), every pixel is generally configured, there are many beautiful themes.
I can also advise Atom.io, from the developers of the github: young, beautiful, convenient, there are already a lot of plugins, there is detailed documentation.

Answer 2

WebStorm (but only because I love Jetbrains very much)
VS code - what you will also be advised now

Answer 3

Tried Notepad++, Sublime Text 3, Atom, VS Code and quite a bit of Brackets. All are good in their own way. I would have settled on Atom if it weren't so heavy on my laptop and could recover damaged files in case of a crash, as it has unique plugins that are not available in other editors (for example, "smart" color highlighting, even if the color is set via a variable SASS). As a result, I chose VS Code for myself - powerful, often updated, many useful plugins, nice design and Russian localization. At the same time, it is quite light in terms of consumed resources. Also, unlike the same Sublime, it is absolutely free.
