    I think this is roughly it:

    1. Magnetic beads manually strung on a thread, each one representing a single bit
    2. Punch cards/tapes
    3. Single-line text editors, for use on a teletype (a-la ed or qed - which still somewhat alive as sed)
    4. Multi-line, or “visual” editors, for use on the terminal (a-la vi)
    5. Modern IDEs
