It’s a theme that is easy on the eyes, and a good dark theme for coding for long periods of time. This theme has a dark blue background with light purples, greens, and whites.

You can still install most extensions and themes from the URL – you just click on the extension manager, click on the extension tab or the theme tab depending on what you install and install from URL. This is probably because the flatpak version is the 2020 version before Adobe stopped working on Brackets and it went to the community. For me using a chromebook, the flatpak version of it doesn’t access the extension manager. The extension manager built into brackets allows you to install themes and packages. In addition to that it’s got a lot of support for other languages like Python, C, and C# among others “out of the box.”įor front end development it has a great live preview built into it as well. It also has functionalities for PHP as well if you’re looking to go server side. It’s a great text editor for html, css, and javascript. It’s similar to VS Code and Atom, albeit a bit “lighter”, and built to be used for front end development. Brackets is an editor built with “Love and Javascript”. I recently began exploring the Brackets editor on a chromebook.
