I use my text editor, TextPad, to edit the code itself. It does a very good job of formatting the code for ease of understanding.

When I want to compile the code, I just open up an Arduino IDE session, select the board, serial port, and programmer (if needed), paste the code into the IDE editor window, then upload the code into my test / production platform. The IDE does not do much of anything beyond that for me.

Yah, something like that.
