Full change logs: brackets and brackets-shell

UI Changes

API Changes

brackets.app

  • openURLInDefaultBrowser -- The parameters for this API were reversed from what was the convention for the other APIs. This was confusing so to conform to convention and accommodate an optional callback, the parameters for this API were normalized. The API usage is now brackets.app.openURLInDefaultBrowser(url, err) where err is an optional function callback that takes 1 argument.
  • Callbacks for brackets.fs methods are now optional

Editor

KeyBindingManager

  • addBinding and getKeyBindings now add and retrieve bindings based on priority. Priority is given to bindings whose optional platform property matches the current platform.

DocumentManager

New/Improved Extensibility APIs

Known Issues

  • Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) by default will not allow Brackets to run since it's not digitally signed yet. To work around this, right click the Brackets app and choose Open. You only need to do that once -- afterward, launching Brackets the normal way will work also.
  • #2272: Windows Vista may not allow the Brackets installer to run (you may not see any error message). To work around this, right-click the installer file, choose Properties, and click the Unblock button.
  • #3458: Quick View does not yet support the latest CSS gradient syntax (using to keyword, unprefixed radial-gradient, repeating-linear-gradient or repeating-radial-gradient).
  • #3570: Mac only - Quick View popover may not appear after resizing window or going fullscreen. Move the mouse to the top of the screen to fix.
  • #3207: If you use a Sprint 21 or earlier build after using this build at least once, a few preferences such as Recent Projects may get reset. (You can back up your cache folder if you're concerned about this).
  • Debug > Run Tests is disabled in the installer/DMG distributions of Brackets, because the unit test code is not included. To run unit tests, pull Brackets from GitHub instead.
