Atom package recommendations #9

Closed JarLowrey closed 8 years ago

JarLowrey commented 8 years ago

Add code to auto-install atom plugins eg apm install minimap # https://atom.io/packages/minimap. Add atom packages minimap, minimap-cursorline, linter, emmet, pigments, double-tag, IDK what else (if you so desire).

Hi,

What is the setup and learning curve like for those plugins?

JarLowrey commented 8 years ago

Theyre mostly UI improvements requiring no learning.

Linter does require some modification, though

Minimap shows an overview https://atom.io/packages/minimap

Emmet expands abbreviations and thus probably isn't 100% essential for most people https://atom.io/packages/emmet

Pigments shows colors https://atom.io/packages/pigments

Double-Tag auto edits closing tags when editing HTML https://atom.io/packages/double-tag

There's some others that I was thinking of. I'll find them all later.

Thanks for the PR!

Do we need to give some guidance on how to modify the linter? And do how does the user make it run? Will it run on save?

JarLowrey commented 8 years ago

Hmmm you know I'm not 100% on how to do that myself. Let me report back to you.

The HTML, CSS and JavaScript versions work instantly

BTW that terminal-plus package is AMAZING! So glad I clicked your Reddit link!

HiFaraz commented 8 years ago

You're welcome! I hated switching back and forth! Tool/solution discovery is a HUGE problem in the ecosystem. Sometimes you're not even aware you have a problem until you see the solution, so how would you find it yourself?

HiFaraz commented 8 years ago

I'm closing this because I think we have enough plug-ins for now. There are still outstanding issues and they will get their own GitHub Issue.

Thanks
