I’m looking for a privacy-focused code editor that can handle HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I am just learning how to code, so I need something that works for beginners as well as respecting my privacy. I have looked around, but I don’t know which one is the best option.

    Most of the popular open-source ones are fine. VSCodium if you want a rich GUI or perhaps Geany if you want a lightweight but beginner-friendly editor. Only things you’ll have to watch out for are editors with online features like AI integration, particularly Microsoft VSCode and the new notepad.exe with AI.

      Yes, I want to stay away from the AI integration so I will take a look at VSCodium and Geany. Thank you.
