Every user has his or her own preferred test editor. Over years I have
used Emacs for just about everything except the kitchen sink, but not,
as it happens, for ConTeXt.
For what it's worth here is what I use:
(1) TeXworks. All one has to do is indicate the correct path to ConText
in the setup for this program, depending on your OS and where you have
installed it, e.g. home/yourname/bin/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin if
you are using Linux and have installed it in \bin. Then choose ConTeXt
(LuaTeX) as the processing tool.
(2) But to make things a lot easier, I also use Federico's text expander
Espanso
<https://duckduckgo.com/?q=espanso+site:espanso.org&t=lm&atb=v353-1>https://espanso.org
<https://espanso.org/>. This just saves so much time, especially for so
many \start...\stop sequences. For example, in espanso I might have:
# blockquote
- trigger: ":bq"
replace: |
\startblockquote
$|$
\stopblockquote
And this means all I have to do is type :bq and as you can sense from
the example above, I have the \start and \stop and intervening space all
ready to work with.
Hope it helps!

Dear ConTeXt users,
I'm wondering what kind of typesetting system / syntax highlighting /
completion you're using.
I've been using myself the simple_Context package for SublimeText
which I scavenged a while ago before it was made unavailable (I wanted
to attach but it's too big for the list). But it's sort of a dead-end.
Open to anything from vim/neovim to emacs or more exotic. Maybe it
would be nice to show the config. (And yes I've seen the Wiki page
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_Editorsbut I've the feeling some
content is outdated.)
Thanks in advance,
Alex
