Brackets VS Light Table

Link to the wonderful people who discovered how to fix the stupidest live preview error in all of human history: https://github.com/adobe/brackets/issues/11519

Heh, just a month ago Adobe Brackets (another Atom clone) did the same https://github.com/adobe/brackets

Oh, that's a good point about the sunsetting. In Brackets's case, Adobe left it active in the hands of the community.

Live Preview in particular is one of the areas I had some fun working on. I worked out a way to do diff/patch to make it quickly and incrementally update the browser[1]

Brackets may be a free and open-source code editor from the owner of Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and other amazing software providers Adobe. it's a primary target for web development and particularly on web designing because it provides plenty of features for web designers like Quick edit, Quick Docs, Live preview, Autosave, JSLint, Preprocessor support, Open source, Extension, themes, and more. Its software is licensed under the MIT license and it's currently run and maintained by Github's open-source developers. Its GitHub repository is https://github.com/adobe/brackets. it was created with help of Electron JS(JavaScript). it's available in 38 languages like HTML, CSS, JavaScript. It supports lots of extensions like Beautify, Autoprefixer, Emmet. Minifier, ToDo, Bracket Gits, Brackets File Icons, Swatcher, and more. it absolutely was initially released on 4 November 2014 around 7 years ago. it's integrated with NODE JS, JavaScript, Adobe PhotoShop, Vizy, and more, and firms like Zenkit, Startlink, MaGIC, WorldGaming, NeoQuant, Core, OpportunityWork, and more are using it for her projects. it's lots of benefits like -

I think you just need to download this : https://github.com/adobe/brackets/releases/download/release-1.14.2/Brackets.Release.1.14.2.msi

I don't think there's a fix for this. This problem has many issue entries on github, and it will eventually get worked on at some point. However you could try this troubleshoot guide.

https://brackets.io/ as well as https://registry.brackets.io/ are already back again. Currently there are still some issues with SSL certification but as soon as these are resolved we should expect to get a working extension manager again. After that, the community will be able to transition to the new branch of Brackets (brackets/brackets-cont) most likely by some kind of patch.

Looks like the project has been archived

I think LightTable development stalled out when the original creator left the project in 2015. Likely the project was too ambitious and maybe ahead of its time. Or maybe Clojure was not the right language to build an IDE...

I think the closest we got to a closure of Light Table is this: https://chris-granger.com/2014/10/01/beyond-light-table/

> Light Table will continue to go on strong. We haven’t talked too much about it lately, but it’s used by tens of thousands of people and still growing. We use it every day to help us build Eve and thanks to the awesome people in the community that has sprung up around it, it gets better every week.

Judging by GitHub contribution data (https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable/graphs/contributors...), it seems there has only been 25 commits (from one author) since Sep 20, 2019.

Light Table - A customizable editor with instant feedback and showing data values flow through your code.

Most IDEs nowadays are as extensible as Emacs is, but most people don't think of them as app platforms, they think of them as IDEs, so they don't bother craeting Email or IRC clients for their IDEs: - Racket's own DrRacket IDE is pretty extensible, although no one seems to try to extend it with apps like Magit, Org-Mode, Calc, or whatever other useful features that Emacs provides. It is theoretically possible, but it just hasn't happened yet. - LightTable is a powerful programming editor written and extensible in Clojure. - Gnome's Gedit can be scripted in Python.

I think it would be better to create an Emacs Lisp interpreter in Clojure for the LightTable editor.

It looks like it's not completely abandoned, at least. https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable/discussions/2506

I'm no Bozhidar, but thought I'd share some links you might find interesting:

- https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable - Clojure editor made in Clojure, not sure if it's being maintained anymore, core authors moved on to a different project if I remember correctly.

- https://github.com/mogenslund/liquid - Clojure editor made in Clojure, fairly new and basic but has a pretty tight integration with Clojure (itself really) which makes it interesting and it can also be embedded into other applications (or embed your other applications into Liquid)

- https://github.com/Olical/conjure - My daily driver for Clojure development. Is not an editor by itself, but it's written in Clojure, and exposed to neovim as a vim plugin. Not only supports Clojure, but also Fennel, Janet and Racket so far. Pretty handy if you sometimes like to dive into Clojure-like languages that are not Clojure (or Racket).
