Nano's not really a programmer's editor. It's fine for writing short shell scripts and configuration files and you can't beat its ubiquity and user-friendliness but it lacks the tools and customizability most programmers prefer for production coding.

I'm a professional developer and I use Nano as my main text editor, entirely by choice. I've never missed the cool features that other editors like Vim and Emacs have, even though I've used both in the past.
