#2I'm new to programming. Is Coda worth the $99 price compared to Sublime?

Depends how you like to code. One is a text editor with an optional fee of $70 the other is more like an IDE for web development. Both are powerful and useful tools. For most people I think it's just personal preference.

I'd suggest trying out their trial version (I think they still have that) to see if you like it. I used to use Coda, then Coda 2, but moved onto Sublime Text and haven't looked back. I still fire it up occasionally, but ST is my go-to editor.

Depends on what kind of coding you are interested in and what your workflow is like.
If you are a new web developer it could be worth it, if you are looking into other non-web programming sublime or atom are probably the better choices because there are a lot of plugins and they support a bunch of different languages.

#6I definitely outgrew Coda a few years ago although I occasionally fire it up to use its visual grep. However, in the time since I switched to other editors (Chocolat, Sublime, and now Atom), my workflow has changed significantly.
I'm ready to do a clean install for Yosemite, and maybe it's also time to give Coda another look. I had been planning to switch back to Sublime after giving Atom a shot (there's a lot to like, but it's slow as molasses and the autocomplete is total garbage). So much of my workflow lives outside of my editor these days, so maybe it makes sense.

If you want to get access to Sublime Text 3 Beta, the $70 fee is not optional. Just an observation.

#8Love Coda 2 and am very excited about Coda 2.5. The one major annoyance for me with 2 was not being able to search remote locations. I don't see this in the release notes. If the Panic team is listening, can we get this in version 3?

#9Looking forward to giving this a spin, I moved over to using brackets a lot but remember liking Coda a lot. I think I will have another go at using it the changes sound like they have some pretty big improvements.

#10I really, really enjoyed Coda for quite a few years in the 1.x days. Panic makes really good stuff.
But had a hard time figuring out how to work Coda into a more "modern" workflow with Git, and moved on to Sublime because it has a more active plugin community and is cross-platform.
Maybe I should take another look at it. Coda definitely excels at the "I have a local copy of a website, and need to sync it with what's on the server over SFTP" workflow.
That was back in the 1.x days, though. I haven't looked at it in ages. Should I? I do mostly Rails these days.
