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.
