What do you mean? My daily code editor is notepad via a shared screen. It’s the best!

In this interview you’ll be expected to program your own editor and then complete the assessment in it. Good luck!!!!!

Write down the source code for your editor in a notebook, and then read it back to me over the phone.

Back in 2013 I had an interview with a large company whose game consoles are very rare to find in stores currently where the guy wanted me to recite JS syntax over the phone. He'd tell me I was incorrect if I didn't say "semi-colon". I wish I was making this up. Hoping they've modified their process a bit. :)

Hey, these semicolons are my light inside the dark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M94ii6MVilw

This very large e-commerce and cloud services company did the same to me in 2007, except it was C syntax.

You send them a full on mini-vim implementation in Rust that uses ropes and then they just look at you disapprovingly because you didn't just tie together a dozen npm packages.
