Re: Adobe Brackets hits 1.0
#2I've been using Brackets for a few months now. It's replaced Netbeans in my life.

#3The default link to 1.0 includes something called "Extract". I don't want Extract. Yes, there's a link to just download Brackets underneath this primary button, but given Adobe's form with packaging unnecessary cruft with their software I'd have thought they'd be trying to avoid this sort of nonsense.

#4I have been a Sublime Text user for quite some time now but I am always interested in open source software, especially when they are built using web technologies. I decided to install Atom.io today and was surprised by the performances, the features (especially through the package system really close in richness to Sublime's) and the overall quality of the editor. For Brackets users out there, how does it compare?

I'm an Atom user too, and I'm envious of the Theseus plugin for Brackets: https://github.com/adobe-research/theseus

#6Lately it has become my editor of choice for JavaScript, TypeScript and MarkDown on Windows. I use a few extensions for linting and live preview and so far they work really well. I hope the startup gets faster with time because that's the only downside I can currently think of. Being open source and cross platform is a big advantage, if I invest time into learning a tool I'd like to be able to use it regardless which OS I'm currently using.

#7I use Brackets for my middle school game programming class (using Phaser). Cross platform, free, and works great for beginners out of the box. Testing out html + js is as simple as hitting a button, no extensions or server or any other hoops necessary.

I've been using Atom for months and I'm getting very frustrated by the slow, buggy performance and utterly terrible autocomplete. I'm giving Brackets a shot because I've heard great things about its autocomplete.

I've been using it at my job to build prototypes. In general, I'm super-pleased with it, there are only two things that stop it from being awesome:
1. The LiveReload feature stops if you open Chrome DevTools, which I often use to debug. Unfortunately, Brackets' own tools aren't enough to match Chrome DevTools, so I have to work with the LiveReload feature turned off, which is a bummer. I really really hope they fix this.
2. We use LESS at my job, and while there are LESS autocompile plugins, working with LESS in Brackets is still not as seemless as working with CSS. However, I think that with some better plugin support and some tweaks to the current plugins, it eventually could be.
I've got to say though, Brackets has totally replaced Sublime for me as my primary editor whenever I'm working on front-end stuff. Theseus and the other Javascript debugging tools are top-notch. I recommend that any front-end developer at least give it a shot for a week or two.
