What do you like best about Brackets?
The most useful feature and what I liked best was the ability to quickly render the HTML code and open the webpage for it in a browser of my choosing. Also, I liked that I can open the webpage side to side to my code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Brackets?
I personally dislike the childish look of it. I first used it to teach elementary level kids HTML and CSS because the interface is very easy to work with but might be too simple for a professional developer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brackets?
I like how it reveals when my html code is broken using colour coded type and the live previews that show how it will be seen to a customer. The preview windows are also responsive as they use Chrome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Brackets?
It would be great to get hints of why my code is broken, sometimes it highlights it as red but it could potentially give hints as to what would fix that particular bit of html. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Brackets?
Brackets is just plain easy to use. It does what it was made to do, and it does it really well. Really customizable, easy to learn, and good online resources in case you have any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Brackets?
It can be easy to get carried away with customizations. Rather than keeping the program light and quick, it can be easy to download too many plugins and extensions. There are so many to choose from, it's a good idea to try a few different ones, but just remember to clean out the ones you don't end up using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
