"Brackets is easy to use and works really well."
3.5/5
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.

sometimes the live preview gives some issues. Most of the editors have the issue with taking up memory spaces. For Brackets, this also stands up true. Sometimes it does not respond very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
