VSCode or Sublime. But Sublime is overpriced, get VSCode.

VSCode

Atom

Sublime is free as in winRAR

Sublime Text>anything

gvim

Vim for Windows.

Sublime Text or VSCode

Sublime is proprietary paid software (eternal trial), has less features and less extensions
VSCode is electron bloat, hogging tons of RAM
pick your poison

of course with any linux-like environment for windows (like cygwin or git-bash) you can always use vim

Notepad++

Absolutely proprietary.

What extensions are good? Themes?

Not used to using a bunch of keyboard shortcuts to do things. Any good guide to help me learn if I wanted to use something like vim, nano, or emacs?

Notepad++

If you into webdev then I recommend:
quokka js
rainbow bracket
prettier
rainbow indendt
palenight operator theme

The answer to any text editor question is always:
Emacs

Notepad and wordpad. Installing anything else is bloat.
