What is the best plaintext editor for less technical people?

Like, if a non technical friend was going to edit some config or a bit of boilerplatey code.

Notepad / TextEdit wouldn't be great, but neither would emacs or vim (and they're not going to mess with any IDE).

@interfluidity Honestly, notepad is pretty solid imo.

The next level up would probably be something like VS Code or Notepad++. They might be a little overkill, but they'll leave room to grow.
