[CLOSED] Integrate / allow plugins to add HTML template support #8774

Issue by TuurDutoit Friday Nov 07, 2014 at 18:38 GMT Originally opened as https://github.com/adobe/brackets/issues/9866


It would be awesome if we could use Live Preview (with Live Highlight) and Quick Edit features with HTML templates, like Handlebars and EJS. I really liked how CSS preprocessors were integrated into Brackets, because they are used so much, so it would be cool to have the same happening to HTML.

I'm not very familiar with the code base, so I don't know how difficult this would be, and I'm probably not qualified to do this myself, so that's why I open the issue.

There's nothing stopping someone from adding Quick Edit support for HTML templates. (And actually the existing CSS inline editor should work automatically on any templates whose syntax highlighting mode correctly marks the plain-HTML parts as HTML).

Allowing Live Preview to support templating is more complex, though. We haven't fully thought through how to enable extensions to do that.

Actually, it looks like we're already tracking this on our feature backlog: Live Development: Live Highlight HTML Elements in Templates (the first step toward supporting full Live Preview for templates). Closing to avoid duplication -- please upvote the backlog item to help raise its priority.
