Pros
Sublime Text is a fantastic tool for writing code and markup text. One of the main benefit is the capability to offer great performance, especially with Python language.
Color themes it comes with are very pleasant and has a good clarity which helped for extended coding session without eye strain.
Nice IDE and really pleasant to use software. Happy to recommend to anyone who considers switching to something new for their day to day text editing needs.
Cons
The plugings sometimes are confusing on how to install them.
There is some problem with the suggestion of the code while typing the code. The most feature is hidden for that we need to find in the menu.
Also, it can be confusing how to install packages.

Write Between the Lines

Reviewed 3 years ago

Sublime is quite simply the best Text Editor that I've used. It's followed me from MacOS to Ubuntu, and with all the language choices that have come along the way... You can even very quickly turn it into a JavaScript IDE competitor with just a handful of plugins

Pros

Ignore reading between the line; Sublime's ability to contextually understand which language you are coding in saves you the stress, instead offering you the power to simply write! From the syntax highlighting you'd expect from other major IDEs such as Eclipse, or Visual Studio, alongside their ubiquitous autocomplete, you'll be pleasantly surprised with Sublme (the name of the app is sooo apt!). But...

Cons

If you want and IDE out of the box, go with VSCode or the likes, but in all fairness, I struggle to find anything that I cannot throw at Sublime Text with any real trouble to integrate... It's the gift that keeps giving.

Good choice but not the best

Reviewed 4 years ago

Sublime was my fast text editor for many years. When I needed to edit a code file without the need of IDE features or when I needed to do it on a computer with low resources, sublime text came to the rescue.

Pros

I used Sublime Text for years, it is a tool that, unlike the ones that existed at that time, worked very fast. Today is still one of the lightest and most powerful tools that exists in the market and that would be the most interesting feature it has. Thanks to Sublime Text I met Emmet, the writing engine where you can do things like write in several sections of the same document at the same time, upload or download portions of code within the document as if it were a block. A powerful tool that you can customize, from your style of colors, thanks to Sublime Text I also knew Monokai, the color scheme that nowadays, years later I still use.

Cons

There are a couple of things that I do not like about Sublime Text and one of them is the reason why I ended up using another application. The first one is the pop-up message to remind you that you are using the free version and if you wanted to buy it. It is the most annoying thing that exists and appears every time you save a document a few times and to develop applications is annoying since you save the document about 30 times per hour minimum. The second thing that I do not like has to do with the evolution of the application. When I used Sublime Text there was no other similar one. But today there are many others that have the same characteristics of Sublime plus other features that I use a lot and that's why I ended up migrating to another application.

Cons

While Sublime Text is a powerful and customizable text editor, it does have a few drawbacks that should be considered before making a purchase:1. Price: Sublime Text is a paid text editor, which may be a drawback for users who prefer free or open-source software.2. Steep learning curve: Sublime Text can have a steep learning curve, especially for users who are not familiar with text editors or programming.3. Limited functionality out of the box: Sublime Text's default installation has limited functionality, with users needing to install plugins and packages to add more features.
