Daryl also talked about things that made no sense to me, like “code folding,” plus he waffled on about things like file manipulation capabilities until my head hurt. The point is that you can have multiple code windows open at the same time. In fact, there was another code window to the right of this, but I chopped it out of this image to keep things simple. Observe the main code window in the upper right. Daryl favors one with a black background as shown above, while I prefer a white background, but “different strokes for different folks,” as they say. It also supports a wide variety of different color schemes. In fact, Brackets works with a host of languages, including C, C++, HTML, Java, Python, SQL… the list goes on.

The open source Brackets editor is applicable to coders working on a wide variety of applications, from web designers and front-end developers to embedded systems designers.Įarlier this morning, I ambled my way into the next bay to pose a question to the Moustache of Knowledge (a.k.a.
