Closed mackenza closed 8 years ago

mackenza commented 8 years ago

Prerequisites

On initial startup, if you haven't already opened a project, then Brackets tries to load the default starter package and returns an error message because it cannot figure out how to do so.

Versions

Linux 1.8.2 (all platforms?)

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install
  2. Run app
  3. observe the error message that it cannot find the default project

Expected behavior: the default project Getting Started should load

Actual behavior: Error message as below:

This is issue for all platforms. I didn't figure out yet what folder should open by default after first start.

ah... my vote is to remove the Getting Started as a default. Maybe create a default extension that adds a "Getting Started" menu item that loads it but don't have it always come up by default. This default Getting Started has been the source of many issues over the years and is of marginal value imo

I agree. The sample project doesn't load on the OSX build either at the moment. I like the idea better to create an extension that provides the menu entry. On Sun, Sep 4, 2016 at 07:54 Andrew MacKenzie notifications@github.com wrote:
