What editor/IDE is best with javascript and node dev? I am currently using sublime, but I would love something with keyword completions 😊

    If you like Sublime there is a package named "CodeIntel" that is a port of Komodo's completion engine.

    or have a look at GitHub's Atom

    @gaboratorium It's still slow and always will be in comparison.

    You would be better off with VS code as Microsoft have ironically done a better job with optimization than the people that made it.

    Truth is all these 3 editors are powerful tools so we should be glad to be able to choose from such great free options.

    Webstorm isn't bad either...

    @turturtles No, in fact it's the best for completions but suffers sluggishness as it's written in Java.

    Been using Atom for quite a while now and I love it! If you want extensibility with plugins and stuff, it's great

    Sublime is still a great choice, I still use it for every project. Atom is another one, but it gets slow (mostly in Windows), so if you want speed use VS Code.
    Remember all three of them are extensibles via plugins :-)

    @bsjurs1 try Visual Studio Code. it is been made specifically for JS, the intelliscense is great and it even comes with a built in node debugger

    My only issue with Microsoft products in general is the amount of crap they come bundled with (either all the extras (.NET & co.) or the unnecessarily massive filesizes...
