About This Course

Brackets is an open source text editor this course will show you what you can do with it

Learn more about using Brackets as your code editor.

A modern, open source text editor that understands web design. Learn how to use Brackets and see all the functionality in action. Learn about top extensions and addons. Review of best setup techniques.

Learn how to use Brackets and how you can easily switch to using Brackets as your code editor.

I've been a web developer since 2000 and have used a number of code editors. I was originally using Dreamweaver in a number of my courses. I found that there were many students who wanted to have the same editor and setup that I have as they follow along with course content. I switched to several open source editors until I found Brackets. I've been using Brackets on a regular basis and found that I don't open Dreamweaver as much anymore. The best part of Brackets its free, so anyone who wants to use the same editor as I do in my courses can do so without barrier.

I decided to create this course to illustrate how to get brackets, how to set it up and some of the advanced features available in Brackets. In addition I wanted to list out top extensions to really power up your Brackets application.

I also cover my XAMPP server setup which allows me to use localhost as my webserver. XAMPP is really straight forward on getting going so most of the course is focused on using Brackets.

Well, the course is pretty good, but Brackets isn't. Brackets is a long shot from Adobe to capture another Market that is sliping since long ago. Its not like Brackets isn't good at all, but VS Code, ST3, and Atom are far better.

It was very helpful from a beginner perspective but I think the course content needs to be updated with new version and adaptations.

At some point, I was unable to install extensions it kept saying invalid. I think it would benefit if a walk through is added on how to install extensions via URL or file.

This was a good intro to brackets. Better than just trying to figure it out on my own.
