Some text editors worth checking out are Sublime (it's free but they will sometimes prompt you asking you to buy it), Github's Atom, Adobe's Brackets, and Windows folks seem to like Notepad++. There are also IDE's, which are useful for more complex programming.

Another great option is to use Codepen. You can write code in html, css, and javascript on the top half of the screen and see the results in the bottom of the screen.

Otherwise, definitely suggest getting a good text editor like the others have suggested. I prefer Sublime Text, but also like using Notepad++.

Thanks Emma. Great help!

Hi,

All you need is a code editor on your computer, there are loads to choose from for both Mac and PC.
Some are free while others are paid for, but usually come with a free trial of some sort.
A simple Google search for code editors will bring up a list of free and paid options out there.

Hope this helps.

There's a lot of code editors you can download, some of them :

Sublime text

Brackets

Notepad++

Codio is basically Workspaces (with a few more features) hosted by Codio instead of Treehouse.

However if you want to host your own coding environment, then the previous suggestions about text editors are what you want.

so with all of your blog, we won't be able to download Workspace to code locally from our laptop right?
