I’m quite sure that I’d be too annoyed writing HTML and CSS in an editor without Emmet, and I’d just give up and use something else that had it. I find the jump-to-line feature works more consistently and search feels more the first-class citizen it should be.Īnother factor would be Emmet. I finally might even like it more than Sublime, as the sidebar approach is more consistent than opening a new tab of results. In working with find-in-project a bit more, I’ve grown to get used to it. On this last switch attempt (my 3rd or 4th maybe?)
