Sublime Text & TextMate aren't really IDEs like many of these but if VS Code is up there, they probably deserve a mention.
Atom?
Vim
There are a bunch of newish Python/Micropython ones such as Mu and Thonny
I wanna suss out the line there. VS Code went in because MS seem to be going all in on it becoming an IDE - check out the stuff with deploying to Azure Functions, Intellisense, etc. I think Sublime Text and TextMate, while a step on the journey to VS Code, were more just text editors that could call out to developer tools but lacked such a deep integration. Or am I being unfair?
I'm probably way biased but the REPL+IDE that FoxPro introduced was a thing on their time. The Visual FoxPro one follow that lead.
You were able to query and browse your data, launch your Form code, re-write your xbase script, do your reporting without quit the app was tremendously productive.
I can't believe you miss the only two defining IDEs of my 20+ year career! (Edit: this is more to express my surprise that I can take a path which seemed so mainstream to me but obscure to others)

Given the inclusion of Dbase and Foxpro you should include Paradox. The 4GL's Gupta Sqlwindows and Powerbuilder should also be in the list. Also since you included all the Borland Turbo products you left out Turbo Asm and Masm which were both IDE's.
If you're including Chrome DevTools you probably should include Firebug (2006) as well. It clearly was an inspiration for both Firefox Dev Tools and Chrome DevTools.
I'm sorta on the fence as to how far to go with what I might call "Web design" tools, but since I included Dreamweaver and since FrontPage was pretty huge, I think it's fair to go in - thanks!
