Add more "decent" text editors (#5308)

I'm a web designer and know there are several "decent" code editors out there, but I would figure not everyone into keyboards is, so I found Sublime text a bit of a hard sell for someone who just need to manipulate some text files. VS Code or Atom would b a much better suit for them instead of dropping $80 on a "decent" text editor.

From here, you should have a working keyboard once you program a firmware. Before we attach the Teensy permanently to the keyboard, let's quickly get some firmware loaded onto the Teensy so we can test each keyswitch.

To start out, download [the firmware](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/) - we'll be using my (Jack's) fork of TMK called QMK/Quantum. We'll be doing a lot from the Terminal/command prompt, so get that open, along with a decent text editor like [Sublime Text](http://www.sublimetext.com/).

The first thing we're going to do is create a new project using the script in the root directory of the firmware. In your terminal, run this command with `<project_name>` replaced by the name of your project - it'll need to be different from any other project in the `keyboards/` folder: The first thing we're going to do is create a new project using the script in the root directory of the firmware.
