I would say I consider myself an Engineer. How you would apply term "Programmer" to a Front-End development with all CSS and HTML markup ? About word "Software Engineer" - well I know Car Engine, Motor Boat Engine, Aircraft Engine. And sure we also have Game Engine, Web Search Engine...... Well if we use Engine also for that code stuff, then yes "Software Engineer" is a fair term for specific niche code/virtual product development/building/engineering.
I use VS Code. I tried Sublime (very simplistic, main memorable feature -> it always remind me to purchase license ) and used Notepad ++ for a long time, but then stopped on VS Code, since it have the most modularity and help to lint code, auto edit pieces of code, basically plugins are savers of time. I'm sure there are a lot of IDE which have similar extendability, but I'm good with VS Code as majority of voters above.
