I am new to Brackets but Google Groups Brackets-Dev seems to be by far the best source of 'live' help on Brackets, I think it would be really useful if a link to it was on the main Help menu.

A Twitter link is already on the Help menu and this would be far more useful than that IMHO.

I'd rather see people who are having trouble go through the Troubleshooting page, because otherwise we end up having to answer the same questions over and over. The troubleshooting page could have a link to the googlegroup (right now it just refers to the "communications channels in the README")

Personally I think hiding a source of help isn't generally a good thing and just encourages people to abandon Brackets for a more 'user' friendly editor.

@blackmambahk My intention is not to hide a source of help, but rather to steer people to a better source of help. For many people, they'll have the answer to their question immediately on the troubleshooting page. If they have some other question, the googlegroup and IRC aren't hidden – they're right there on the front page of brackets.io and in the README on GitHub.
