visual studio code (vscode) is a popular text & code editor created by Michael H. Soft. you can edit text in it.
of note for this guide is its "[Remote - SSH][marketplace]" plugin, which lets you edit files over a secure shell (SSH) session. for the time being, this is probably the easiest way to edit your pronounmail website.
using it is pretty simple:
Download VSCode
You can download VSCode from its website or using your favourite package manager.
Install the Extension
Open up VSCode, press CTRL + P and type ext install ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh.
Hit enter and it should install the extension for you.
(I think there should be an image here.)
Connect to pronounmail Dot Com
Click the little "Open a Remote Window" button in the bottom left of the window, and select "Connect to Host..." from the menu that appears. In the text box, type <your username>@pronounmail.com and hit enter. If you don't have SSH key authentication set up yet, you'll be prompted for a password.
Open Your Site
If all goes well, you should now be connected to the server[1]. You can now select "Open Folder" from the File menu, navigate to your site folder (it'll be called public_html) and edit away.
good luck!!!
