12 Code is the text editor that works for you. It auto-saves your files,
13 meaning they're always up-to-date. Plus it remembers your tabs so you
14 never lose your spot, even in between sessions.
15
16 Make it yours. Code is written from the ground up to be extensible.
17 Keep things super lightweight and simple, or install extensions to turn
18 Code into a full-blown IDE; it's your choice. And with a handful of
19 useful preferences, you can tweak the behavior and interface to your
20 liking.

24 speed, and consistency. It's sexy, but not distracting.
25
26 Works with your language. Whether you're crafting code in Vala, script‐
27 ing with PHP, or marking things up in HTML, Code has you covered. Expe‐
28 rience full syntax highlighting with nearly all programming, scripting,
29 and markup languages.
