Sublime Text 2 for development

Hey guys. Some time ago I started using Sublime Text 2 as my main Text Editor. It is super fast and extremely impressive in all fields. It has so many cool features and is defiantly worth checking out. In my opinion it outworks both TextMate and Coda which were my preferred Text Editors for mac before the rise of Sublime Text 2.

A quick list of cool features and extensions in Sublime Text 2:

  • Multi Colum selection integration (Watch video here!)
  • Package Control (awesome)
  • Komodo Intellisense integration
  • Snippets
  • Mini-map overview graphic for ‘birds-eye-view’ of source
  • Powerful command palette to quick perform actions
  • Easy file loading with file switching panel
  • Code-Folding
  • Indent Guides
  • Vintage mode for Vi key bindings
  • Powerful multi-pane/Split-pane editing
  • Regex-based find and replace
  • Support for Textmate themes
  • Powerful plugin architecture
  • Jump-to-function panel
  • Remembers files on re-open
  • Bracket matching
  • Fully customizable key bindings
  • Auto-complete and Snippets and Macros
  • Full-screen / Distraction-free editing
  • And many more…

If you’re into web development I really recommend this editor and check out this blog post by Andy Miller, which will get you started with some nice extensions.
