There are a lot of good text editors and development environments that would be suitable for web development. After a lot of testing, I found Notepad++ to be the best solution for me.
This is on the one hand due to the extremely intuitive handling and on the other hand due to NppFTP, that is the FTP extension that can be installed optionally. Other editors are usually so limited that they only allow you to upload the local files to exactly the same folders on the server, without any choice - NppFTP, on the other hand, gives you a kind of built-in file/folder explorer in order to select the folder to which you want to upload a file. Moreover, some editors also have the problem that you can specify, for example, only a single server or a single FTP account. Or that you have to link local folders with FTP accounts.
However, one should not install the NppFTP plugin, which is directly installable via the extension management within Notepad++ - this is prone to crashes when an FTP connection gets closed for some reason. Instead, one should resort to the NppFTP at Github, where this bug has long been fixed.
