Pulsar (former Atom) is still the best code editor in my opinion. It is easiest and fastest to use, has all the nice productivity boosting plugins and is overall great for all the same reasons the Atom was great. ๐Ÿš€

It just works. I spent years with Eclipse (but quite some time ago now), and it was always a pain getting particular things to work properly. The last time I messed with it was doing research for an article I was writing. I was try to get Gradle support enabled. I wasn't able to do it, but I admit I gave up pretty quickly because I don't have the patience for messing with tools that don't work any more.

In truth, I really liked the Open aspect of Eclipse and I wish it work better than Intellij. Maybe it does now - I don't know. For Java Intellij is awesome, and does everything you could ever dream for. For Kotlin - well Kotlin is an Intellij product and the support for it is awesome.

Sweet thank you!
