At work I run VSCode. At home I try to run Nova. But I do not seem to get used to it and I fall back to VSCode a lot of times. As a "secondary editor" I use TextMate 2.0. Let's see if Zed is going to be good. Or maybe I should learn neovim.

I use BBEdit as my secondary editor. It’s pretty fast and stable. Nova looks pretty mature but it doesn’t have some extensions I need :(
