I have hosted my Homepage over Amazon's S3 system. In order to change information on the page, currently, I have to change the file on my computer and upload the new version. However, I would like to directly change the file in the S3 bucket within a browser (to change it anywhere).
Is there a cloud-based text editor that can use S3 as a "file system" and would allow me to change text files (e.g., html, css, js, etc.)?

In short, if you set x-amz-acl: public-read on a file then you can access it as https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket-name/path-to-file . No need for enabling website hosting, unless you want the pretty hostname and support for index and error documents.
To see how this works, click a private file in the Amazon S3 Management Console, then choose Open from the Actions menu. The object will be opened. This is done by providing the browser with a pre-signed URL that includes a cryptographically-sized URL and a period of validity.
I would use S3 Sync from the awscli to download the files and edit them locally before syncing them back to their original location and updating the originals.
Documentation on S3 sync here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/sync.html
EDIT: Example:
aws s3 sync s3://mybucket .aws s3 sync . s3://mybucket
