I’m having students in my web development courses use Sublime Text as their editor. As a result, I’ve been digging deep into Sublime Text & writing up what I’ve learned on my personal website, which I use with some of my classes. This post is a pointer to some of those pages.

Step one in using Sublime Text: installing it. I provide instructions for Windows, Mac OS X, & Linux. I even tell you how to install the Windows Portable Version, which is especially helpful for students.

Step two: configuration. Sublime Text doesn’t use a GUI for configuration. Instead, it requires you to edit text files. I don’t mind doing this; in fact, I find it useful, as I can easily copy & paste configs or even entire config files. However, it’s pretty alien to most non-UNIX users, so I walk through the basic concepts & provide sample configurations for HTML, CSS, & Markdown.

More soon.
