VSCode does it for me.

I've tried quite a few and my favorite is VS Code. So many useful extensions, auto save, and the live server is huge plus.

I use VS Code. It is very well supported by Microsoft. The customization you can do is pretty incredible, but it also works with without too much tinkering. It has great integration with GitHub for basic push / pull activity. If anything, I would say there are too many options for customization, so it could be easy to waste time going down that rabbit hole.

Since you are just getting started and really only working with HTML and JS, anything free should be good for you, but I honestly wouldn't get too hung up on it. They are interchangeable, so you can try all of them and see what clicks for you.

I'd add IntelliJ for Java and PHP storm for PHP, both from JetBrains.
Of course Android Studio for Android development and the equivalent for iOS.
For the rest I'd say VSCode

Of all the editors, my favorite is VSCode. A lot of settings, extensions, auto-completion, the ability to customize the look with ready-made themes or by creating your own theme and many other things make this editor a great and favorite tool for me.

But besides VSCode, I also like Sublime Text, WebStorm, PhpStorm, Notepad++

SublimeText - just as capable as VSCode, less resource hungry, and much faster

Oni2 and neovim with Lunar configuration. I go back and forth. Sometimes still using Emacs with Doomemacs config with evil mode set.

Vim or editors with decent vim emulation.
