Edge Code is for web designers and developers who write HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Brackets is an open-source editor for web design and development built on top of web technologies such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The project was created and is maintained by Adobe, and is released under an MIT License.
Edge Code is a distribution of the Brackets open source project – in addition to the core functionality included within Brackets, Edge Code includes additional features that make it easy to use other Edge Tools & Services, such as Edge Inspect, Edge Web Fonts and PhoneGap Build.
If you have the skills to use Edge Code, you also have the skills to customize the editor and contribute new features. There is even a robust and growing JavaScript API to allow you to build new extensions. For more information about contributing to the Brackets project or developing new extensions visit http://brackets.io.
Edge Code is available to free and complete Creative Cloud members. Edge Code will continue to be a free tool after the preview period.
We are excited to share an early preview of Edge Code, but our work is far from complete. While this version is stable and mostly free of bugs, the preview version is missing features that might be required for day-to-day use. Join us on the forums to provide your input on how Edge Code should evolve.
We hope to have a version of Edge Code that is ready for day-to-day use in mid 2013.
Edge Code currently supports Live Preview in Google Chrome.
Edge Code is currently available in English and French.
During the preview stage, we update Edge Code when new features are ready rather than on a set schedule (but probably about once per month). You will be notified in-product with a "present" icon when a new version of Edge Code is available. The Brackets open source project will continue having its regular milestone builds approximately once every 20 days.
Please visit Brackets.io or Edge Code Forums to provide feedback, request features, or report bugs.
If you have questions about using Edge Code, please visit the Edge Code forums.
