Brackets is a special kind of text editor. It's not overly complex, very light even for a small application like that, and it is specifically designed to be suitable for Web design purposes.
Brackets is open source, which means it is constantly changed, optimized and updated by a team of enthusiasts. This is why the main feature of the editor is its visual interface and toolset saving users the tedious procedure of switching between windows and menus to edit and add different kinds of content, including, of course, code. Using only a couple of interactive interface elements users can open the code they want to edit and change it at will. The program uses the Creative Cloud Extract to get clean, minimal CSS straight from a PSD. Brackets has a real-time connection with the selected Internet browser, allowing users to see edited changes right away.

Brackets can open and edit files in the most comfortable way for the user, including Split View, is capable of fast editing on the fly, can enter preview mode or hide all interface elements during editing, etc. It supports several popular formats including HTMS, JavaScript and CSS. There are various extensions available for the editor, and regular support with new updates ensure its continued popularity stability and usefulness.
