21,339 PointsI am using Sublime and I love it. What extensions does Bracket come with that you couldn't find for Sublime?

18,364 PointsI use sublime too and I love it. The only problem I've run into with it is trying to set the program as my default text editor. In the past, I used notepad++ but it seemed a bit outdated. I am curios what it is about bracket that you like so much? Why not just stick with sublime?

18,364 PointsWow! Thanks for the post. brackets is amazing!

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 19,022 PointsLike there are other text editors out there that can do stuff that bracket can do but most are expensive. What I so love about bracket is the live edit cuz that's something l was lacking the use of in sublime and was so much pain using Grunt I do that work. Didn't mind if l was building an app ten obviously using yeoman and that made sense. Can you share more light on the extensions that sublime is got I haven't only used one because the tutorial needed it Cosmin Cioaclă

16,001 PointsI use Komodo Edit. An instructor at Portland Community College turned me on to it. It's free, open-source, and codes in all kinds of formats. What's not to like? I knew I could use it for anything I'd do here, and so I am and will continue. I suppose if more bells and whistles are wanted, one could pay for Komodo IDE, but those of us who are broke folks appreciate a good, free code editor!

7,369 PointsYou got sublime and brackets. You got everything for free.,No need to pay for different style or layout of the program ^^

9,018 PointsVim master race checking in, if you ever have a spare year of your life to lose, you should totally pick it up. But seriously Sublime Text has been mentioned and it's great, but it's technically not free. Atom is a great editor that's been picking up steam lately and provides a similar experience.
