Of those two I would go with VS Code :-)

Thank you Henrik :)

Hi Fengky Liem,

I'd say that both are viable options and I recommend you to try them both to get a feel for them. They are both rather customizable. In the end personal preference is what's gonna matter :)

Thank you stjarnan for you insight :)

Both are nice to use and I currently flip flop between the two. I usually use atom as a text editor for smaller projects and VScode for larger projects. The integrated terminal in VScode comes in handy. I've also noticed that Atom gets sluggish faster with more lines of code whereas VScode does not.
