I also hate the Arduino IDE! Personally, I usually type in my programs using Atmel Studio and then cut/paste into Arduino to finally download and run. Not a great workflow, but I am used it it.

For a while I had Visual Micro working, but then ran into some licensing issues so abandoned it.

Here is a slightly old post on getting everything to work with Visual Studio Code…

Visual studio code (vscode) integration

I think it should be similar to use VS Code. Someone made a Sublime Text plugin that provides an Arduino-like environment for editing, compiling and uploading sketches. It’s called Stino. But for the blinks platform, it fails to check the toolchain(which I have no idea what it is). I saw someone reported that bug on Stino’s Github page. But there is no reply to it. And for the serial, it only shows 25000 but no 50000. It can’t recognize fast programmer as well. Therefore, I have to make sublime …

My guess is that this would be easier now, but I have not tried. If you do try, report back if you have any problems and we’ll try to work through them. My guess is that this will end up being the best solution for most people.
