Visual Studio Code became famous over the past 3+ years I believe. The clean UI, easy to use UX and the plethora of integrations made it a very easy decision for us. Our gripe with Sublime was probably only the UX side. VSCode has not failed us till now, and still is able to support our development env without any significant effort.

Goland being paid, as well as built only for Go seemed like a significant limitation to not consider it.

Lightweight and versatile. Huge library of extensions that enable you to integrate a host of services to your development environment. VS Code's biggest strength is its library of extensions which enables it to directly compete with every single major IDE for almost all major programming languages.

PyCharm (pro)

• great editor designed specifically for Python and python apps
• complex (good for configurability, bad for simplicity)
• expensive ($200 first year, $120 third year)

PyCharm (free)

• same as above but without a REST client or support for other web development tools (which you will likely end up using)
• ok to get your feet wet (you can always upgrade later) Full comparison: https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/features/editions_comparison_matrix.html

VS Code (free)

• Configurable "IDE" with support for most modern languages
• TONS of simple-to-install extensions that add functionality
• Great docs and UI

Sublime Text (free)

• one of the most minimal editors out there
• it just works

It's really down to personal preference. But I would recommend downloading all of the FREE editors, getting setup in each, and keeping only the ones you like.

My personal choice for web development is VS Code but I started with Pycharm (free), and use Sublime text on occasion.

Just focus on learning and developing and you will find what features you're looking for.
