## Source Code Editors
Source code editors are the programs that allow for code creation and
editing. Any text editor can be used to write code. But dedicated code
editors offer many useful features, including: text completion,
markup coloring, and tabs/panes for side-by-side editing. These features can
be useful even to new users who don't know their way around all of the
advanced options.

There are many, many editors available to download or use
online, both paid and free. They offer many of the same core-features, but
each have their own subtleties. Further research may help find the one that's
right for you. The following editors are all cross-platform and
free to use or evaluate.
