How will Brackets know that you downloaded a script?
How will Brackets figure out into which html the script should be inserted?

@zaggino in our project folder what or which ever css or js file if present in folder will be linked and in case of buld systems like grunt & gulp there will be settings in .json file

that's too specific to be considered as an editor feature, but you could write it as an extension for brackets if you need it

@zaggino it can be also done by just draging file from project view in the head tag and link or script tag with attr will be generated

again, it's too difficult to get it right, there're hundreds of frameworks, build systems, etc
the editor would have to know exactly what your setup is to get it right and the amount of effort doesn't seem to satisfy saving to write a line of code

@MandarSant I've made an extension that has some of the functionality you want. You must have downloaded the files, or created in your project. But then, you just have to right-click on the CSS or Javascript file, select "Link File" and the link is inserted in the focused HTML document with the correct relative path. You may find it useful.
