Serious question, did anyone else quit trying to learn an IDE and just use a plain text editor first?
Last month I spent 3 evenings fighting autocomplete errors in VS Code on my Hello World script, then switched to Notepad on a whim and finished a little tip calculator in about 20 minutes. I always figured an IDE was step one for learning, but now I'm not so sure it isn't just noise for a total newbie. What did you all start with, and did the fancy editor actually help or just get in the way?

What made you pick Notepad over something like Sublime or even IDLE?
