#31248 — Editor with syntax highlighting for HTML, CSS, Javascript AND PHP

If I'm writing a website which has ALL these languages on it, is there any editor for Linux which will correctly detect ALL of them, and provide the colours, with DIFFERENT COLOUR SCHENES FOR EACH LANGUAGE - ie. Javascript has to look different from PHP!
Will Emacs do it, with the appropriate plugins or something....? Surely *someone*, *SOMEWHERE* must have solved this problem by now, with the amount of websites being developed all oveer the world....?


Thanks.

I never learned emacs, but I think it will do what you need.

I went for gvim (vi predecessor) when I started working on Windows
due to it's portability and the fact that I had been using vi for
years which lowered the learning curve and it has syntax highlighting
that should meet your needs.

predecessor should have been successor or postdecessor.  ;)

There are many good, open-source, and cross-platform code editors, such 
as Visual Studio Code [1], Sublime Text [2], Brackets [3] and Atom [4].

Atom was developed by GitHub. VS Code and Atom run on top of the 
Electron framework [5], but VS Code seems a bit faster and better than 
Atom. Both Atom and VS Code have very good Git integration.

Brackets has some interesting features for front-end development, but I 
didn't manage to use it for server-side / back-end development (e.g with 
asp / asp.net).

Personally, I prefer "Sublime Text 3" for server and client side 
development.

Emacs and VIM are very old editors, still used today though. But I 
prefer the newer editors listed above.

I'm pretty old too - does that make me obsolete or more experienced.  :)

vim/gvim was built on vi because of its efficiency in key strokes I would
imagine.  When I first looked at emacs there seemed to be longer sequences
to get things done.  Can't comment on the newer editors.  The portability
of vim/emacs was a major issue for me since you can hop from platform to
platform seamlessly.  And gvim, for one, is still being enhanced regularly.
