  • good product
  • I tried the latest version of Brackets IDE 1.13 for three times. It runs for a few days. It has some serious issues with their "Live" preview. There are literally thousands of issues reported from people all around the world, but only a few figure it out. No community support. For me, I can't waste my life on something like that. Perhaps in a few years time (I'd say anything between 5-10 years) they may have found a solution to it but no matter how light weight and modern that thing is, I need something that works and run now a premium IDE. Should've done this months ago. I give it a 2 stars only because I quite liked the interface.
