I started with TeXworks (+ XeTeX, which both happen to have been created by Jonathan Kew) and I found no reason to change since then. The only slight drawback is that autocomplete support exists but is rudimentary, however it doesn’t bother me that much.

Which editor do you prefer?

    Nvim. autopair.nvim let’s you autoclose “begin[]” macros. Luasnip let’s you create custom snippets for every macro you use. I also use Emmet LSP for inline svg.

    Usually Neovim and :!tectonic main.tex, nothing fancy. For preview ideally Zathura or Preview on Mac.

    Also VSCode is quite usable, since there are some pdf preview plugins.

    TexStudio, the multi view and jump to source/output is great on big projects. Zotero macro is very helpful. Compile/clean buttons that also work on multi file projects are huge time savers.
