  2. Nova Code Editor is software that is used for writing and editing codes.
    Nova (https://nova.app) has a remote file browser + terminal that I've found work surprisingly well, it has the advantage of being Mac native as well!

  3. Transmit is an FTP client for Mac OS X and Mac OS Classic (which is unsupported).
    If you are on a Mac, using Transmit (https://panic.com/transmit/) you can mount a SSH/SFTP connection as a local disk and edit there in your editor of choice.

  4. 4
    Modern terminal-based text editor
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    Try out the micro code editor, it has more generic/windows-like key conventions (i.e. Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V copy and paste), full mouse support, etc: https://micro-editor.github.io/ It doesn't support everything VS code can do (notably it doesn't have LSP support), but it could be more accessible to you than vim or emacs.
