There are several free editors out there. Since you're asking from the "How to Make a Website" course I assume you're looking for something that can handle HTML + CSS and possibly JavaScript. Three good, complete free choices I see recommended frequently are:

So give them a try and see which one works best for you.

I tied Komodo Edit and it works fine, thanks for sharing it with me. I like how Komodo Edit is very similar to the workspace in the videos.

Sublime text is the the best text editors out there. some of the trrehouse teachers use it.

Yeah there are many text editors have a look at Sublime Text and something like Coda both of these text editors you can download and use on a computer, with many similar features like syntax highlighting and multiple cursors.

I forgot to mention that I run Windows, but Coda is for MacOS only, so it does not work for my needs. Thanks for your answer though.

Personally I prefer Notepad++ on Windows OS , It is an excellent editor with good performance

I downloaded Notepad++ as well, I still prefer Komodo Edit for making web pages. I do however like the Batch file function that Notepad++ has for making batch files. It can recognize most of the special characters utilized with alt code for making cool borders around my menu system and does not save them improperly when saving them like notepad or wordpad does.
