If you are on a Mac and you are using either one of these editors, you have made a solid choice as far as I’m concerned.Several years ago, I moved from Dreamweaver to Panic’s Coda as my primary web coding editor. But I like many things about Coda and wanted to replicate some of its features in Sublime Text as best as I could.
I’m trying Sublime Text because, at the time of this writing, Emmet doesn’t work well in Coda 2.5. I’m not pitting these applications against each other. This is akin to Coda’s “Panic Sync” feature, which lets you sync some data and settings between Coda installations. This is great because you can invest some time setting up Sublime Text once, just how you like it, and carry over those settings to your laptop, work computer, etc. Package Syncing does what it says on the tin by allowing you to sync your packages and settings across different computers. In practice, I haven’t needed organization, so I don’t mind that my snippets are all sitting in one location together. While it doesn’t give you a good way to organize your snippets, it does make it easy to add and edit them. With very little resistance, it will create for you a snippet based on your selection.

Highlight some code you have written then run SnippetMaker. This is the sort of tedious tasks that computers were meant to do for you. Snippets in Sublime Text are written in a particular syntax and added by saving files to the filesystem. This package is essential if you want a Coda-esque sidebar in Sublime Text. Move, rename, open with, move to trash, copy/paste files-these are some of the file actions available in your sidebar. If you want to the power to right click your way to productivity, then this package is for you. This package adds some extra oomph to Sublime’s sidebar by expanding on the options in the context menu. But at the same time, it makes Sublime Text work with the filesystem better-something Coda is pretty good at. Granted, this is a departure from the stated goal of making Sublime Text a little more like Coda, which favors a mouse-based approach. It works a lot like the bash command mkdir and will appeal to folks who prefer keeping their hands on the keyboard. This package offers a quick input field for creating a new file at some path within your project. It includes some cool CSS shorthand as well. This is extremely convenient when you need to build out a lot of HTML. Emmet takes some of the redundancy out of writing markup by allowing you to write shorthand syntax which expands into HTML. I’m starting with Emmet because it’s the primary factor in my switch to Sublime Text. (Note that I am using Sublime Text 3.) 1. Here are the five essential plugins I’ve been using. Using the powerful package manager, Package Control, I set out to make Sublime Text as much like Coda as I could. In addition, I wanted to make it easy to create snippets and sync my text editor settings between machines. My goal was much less ambitious - to make the Sublime Text sidebar tolerable. You will never be able to fully replicate it in Sublime Text 1. But out of the box, it doesn’t match up against Coda’s main selling point: it’s super amazing sidebar that consist of a full-featured file-browser, FTP client, and snippet manager. So about a month ago, I switched to my second-favorite editor, the one most of my coworkers use - Sublime Text. And Coda 2 broke one of my favorite plugins, Emmet. It doesn’t have as many plugins as other editors. That said, I find its extensibility lacking. It packs a lot of features and is a great all around editor. I’ve been a long time user of Panic’s fantastic code editor for Mac, Coda. As a developer, one tool stands above the rest as the most essential - the almighty text editor.
