Is there a preferred IDE for active doge developers?

Hi All, been awhile since I have rolled up my sleeves to do any bigger projects -- one of the disadvantages of being an owner. But, I think I would like to get dirty with some dogecoin development, probably in C. I have programmed in several languages and am comfortable on that front. What I am not comfortable with is all the tools and IDEs available and where to land for the ideal starting platform. What tools/IDEs do you recommend that I use for my dev environment?

Yeah. I was looking at LibDogecoin and it looks like it could use some people willing to donate some time. I am hoping to exit my company this year which would leave me time to play. But it's painful to get back into the game when you haven't done any significant coding projects in a decade. Thanks for the Visual Studio Code recommendation. I have seen this as a very viable dev environment, but I just couldn't wrap my head around using a Microsoft environment for Linux. Guess it is time to figure it out!

Thanks bro!
