Perfect Workflow in Sublime Text: Free Course!

on Sep 24th 2012 with 96 comments

I’m pleased to announce that my newest course on Tuts+ Premium is out…and free to everyone! I have a confession: I’m a code editor addict, and have tried them all! I was an early adopter of Coda, a TextMate advocate, even a Vim convert. But all of that changed when I discovered Sublime Text 2, the best code editor available today.

I’ll demonstrate what I consider to be the perfect workflow.

In this free course, I’ll demonstrate what I consider to be the perfect workflow in Sublime Text 2. We’ll cover everything from the basic core features, such as multiple cursors and the command palette, to the most popular and useful plugins, to working with Sublime’s build system.

If you’re intrigued by Sublime Text, but haven’t yet dug into it, now is the perfect time. Let me convince you!

Outline

Here’s the full lesson outline for the course. You certainly don’t have to watch in order; skip around to the ones that interest you most!

Exclusively on Tuts+ Premium

    is there any option for auto format of file like netbeans’s alt+shift+f ??

  • Sid

    Hey Jeff, thank you very much for this valuable resource. I work with .net technologies but I really enjoy using ST2 with zen coding for html and css. Zen coding is also available in visual studio as extension but then too I don’t like it. Although its a headache to convert form elements from html to asp elements for web forms! Any good advice anyone here can give me to move html code from html file to .aspx file? I am aware of just using the html elements with runat=server attribute and then access the element in code.

    Thanks

    ST2 is definitely the best course editor now, and it is much cheaper than many others.

      agree with you Van !

    ST2 is suprising. it is quite simple , yet very powerfull , close to vim in my opinion. And the Linter and the Code Intel work very very well with Php , and it’s fast(er than NetBeans or Eclispe at least ).
    Thanks for the tutorials , they look great.

    I discovered this awesome editor about a month ago and now I recommend it to everyone in my class. Most people say it works even greater than DreamWeaver!

    Great tutorial but i got little problem with auto completion and snippets.

    I got problem with jQuery Snippet that i installed throughout package control. After instalation i do not have popup with jQuery code hints and intalisance. Look at this video:
    https://tutsplus.com/lesson/adding-snip … e-control/

    On 0:50 after typing . Jeffrey got popup with code hints – i dont have this one. i have to type .on and then press tab to display popup with snippet…
    And yes im in javascript file and i got default settings.

    And after . he also got all jquery functions like add or addClass. I do not have this one even if i press ctrl+space or tab… This is frustrating ;). How its on your machine guys ?

    • Stan85

      And one more thing

      How to enable autocompletion for jQuery to be working in tags embedded in html file ? I got working jquery code hits and autocompletion popups but only in javascript files (.js). There is no popup with code completion in tag ebeded in html code (for example:

      <script>
	  (function() {
	  	alert("test") 
	  })();
    
   $.on
  </script>

      After typing $.on i do not have code compliton. Can I enable this woring not only in .js files but also in script tag embeded in html code ?

    Oh man, thank you so much for this super tutorial and convincing me to fall in love with this text editor. It’s the best I’ve ever learned & used!

    Really helpful, I have been trying to get a grasp on sublime text for my current projects. Thanks netuts for making the course available for free.

  • http://www.s0d.gr s0dz

    Best editor I’ve used so far. Good job Jeffrey!

  • http://www.windkr89.nl Erik

    Thanks, really helpful. I purchased Sublime based on your experiences with it.

    Question: is there a nice cheat sheet for Sublime, for the keyboard shortcuts? Would be really helpful!

  • Yasin

    How to use Team Foundation Server (TFS) with sublime Text 2 for version control.
    I found this plugin https://bitbucket.org/CDuke/sublime-tfs/wiki/Home but don’t know how to use it when TFS is configured on network.

  • Tobal San

    Hey Jeffrey,

    outstanding course. Thank you very much for the efforts you put up to provide us with your help and insight. Many thanks.

    Just one question, do you ever use SublimeCodeIntel ? The plugin isn’t mentionned in the course but I can remember it’s mentionned in an older post about the best plugins for ST2.

  • OW

    We purchased copies of Sublime Text after seeing how quick and effective it was at creating rapid code snippets in the TUTS+ JQuery tutorials. I have to agree that it is by far the best code editor I have ever used.

    Coming from a Windows background, I remember the days of ‘EDLIN’ and Microsoft’s ‘M’ editor and cannot fathom how we ever managed.

    I would love to see a TUTS+ tutorial for Sublime Text’s Pythod language and API. I know nothing of Python.

    We store all of our code pages in a database and would love to see a tutorial on how to seemlessly integrate a database File Open and Save in Sublime. Something on the lines of DB File Open, List of pages pop up along with a fuzzy search feature, select page by name, edit. Then Ctrl+S (File Save) would know a DB based page was being edited and save back to the DB rather than the fIle system.

    Cheers
    OW

    Thank you, was about to finally pay for this software since I use it at home on my 2 PC(Linux and PC) and at work on OSX time to pay that 60$ fee and stop being annoyed by those recurring pop ups!

  • http://eddie-moore.com Ed Moore

    None of the videos seem to be working for me. It just keeps saying it can’t find the rtmp server.

      Such a beautiful Sublime Text theme. Thanks for sharing!

  • Lu Nelson

    One section you could add to this tutorial is how easy it is to sync ST2 setups across computers with Dropbox. The fact that Settings and Packages all amount to nothing more than simple files (usually just text), means you can have it available on all your machines without needing to redo any work. That, plus if you keep your projects named the same and placed relative to your home folder on all your machines, event recent documents and project settings will stay in sync.

    That being said, for the projects themselves it’s of course better to use version control than Dropbox

    I’m just starting out with Sublime Text. And these are great lessons! Thx Jeffrey!

    LiveReload is interesting

  • Tahir

    While downloading a video in download manager it stops saying Access denied, invalid user name or password, same is happening with other free courses.

  • Tankuppp

    how does he open terminal so fast, is there a plugin for it?

  • chadananda

    Wow, that was extremely useful.

  • Christopher Walker

    Bought this software several months ago just because of how awesome it is in this tutorial. I can only say best money I have ever spent on ANY software.

    I know this might be asking for too much, but would you add English subtitles to those videos? I am deaf and have been doing a lot of programming work. I heard Sublime is getting popular and I would love to learn more about it. Thanks much!
