Linux users have more text editors, IDEs, and command-line tools than a programmer can shake a stick at. If you're looking for a good programming text editor, we recommend Kate. It's super easy to get started with, but is quite powerful and has lots of great plugins to beef it up. Here’s the download link: https://kate-editor.org/get-it/

Syntax highlighting support for more than 180 languages with bracket matching (to make sure you don't forget to close anything)
Code folding/collapsing
On-the-fly spell checking
Show multiple documents at once with window splitting
Session support
Bookmarking system with scroll bar marks
Code autocompletion with argument hints
Vi input mode (for your vim junkies out there)
