- dubcanada 13y agoThey stupidly used WebKit which has terrible Windows support. The linux support is okay, but still vastly behind the OSX support. They need to jump ship to chromium in order to provide what they want to all 3 os's. Just purely based upon what I've seen in the DMG package, you could pretty easily build your own version for Windows, or use it in Chrome with a couple of tweaks. They don't seem to use the C++ bindings a ton.
- kneath 13y agoAtom is indeed based off of Chromium.
- toggle 13y agoYeah (although I actually have OSX), that'd be nice. Related to this, today I just discovered Brackets[1]. It also has some nice git features, like highlighting changed lines. Like Atom, it's written in HTML5. Unlike Atom, it's available on all platforms...because that's a really cool thing about HTML5. [1] http://brackets.io/ http://brackets.io/
- bob_loblaw 13y agoDownloaded Brackets today, as I am really excited for the live web view. However, the live web view either showed wonky formatting or crashed. However, if I open the same index.html doc in Chrome, everything is fine. They say Bracket is updated every 2.5 weeks, so I hope the issue doesn't last too long.
- untothebreach 13y agoI just downloaded brackets, but it won't let me use Firefox, it forces me to use Chrome, so no Brackets for me.
- skrowl 13y agoI got rid of Chrome months ago over NSA spying stuff. Not only does this not work in Firefox, but it won't work in Qupzilla (which is WebKit). I'll wait for a new version with better browser support.
- untothebreach 13y agohmmm, I had never heard of QupZilla, I am going to check it out.
- bob_loblaw 13y agoYup Chrome only. I believe they are working on more browsers.
- untothebreach 13y agoThanks for the tip, I will check it out
