What an exciting week. The Brackets team has released a Brackets Release 0.43. This new version has some great new and improved features

  • SCSS/LESS Support - Quick Edit, Quick Find Definition & Live Preview Highlight now support SCSS & LESS – the same as they do for plain CSS.
  • Improved Dark Mode - More parts of the Brackets UI become dark when a dark theme is selected.
  • Find/Replace: Show Match Index - The Find/Replace bar shows the index of the current match, e.g. “7 of 32”.
  • Themes Tab in Extension Manager - Themes are listed in a separate tab so they’re easier to find. The Extensions tab filters out themes.
  • Save Language Mode Changes - Permanently change the language for all files with the same extension by choosing “Set as Default” from the status bar language switcher.
  • Live Preview - Reliability improvements and support for .xhtml files.
  • Ukrainian Translation - Brackets has a new, community-contributed Ukrainian translation.
