I've not been active on this project for a long time. I wrote it when I first got started with JavaScript and node.

So now, only GOD know what I was writing.

I've decided to develop a brand new version and will publish it soon, maybe some day in April 2015. Stay tuned!

#brackets-code-connect Code connect is an extension for adobe/brackets. Code connect allows you to synchronize your code in the currently actived brackets editor to others' actived brackets editor. The actived brackets editor is the opened code editor in brackets.
You can use code connect to share your code to others. It will be especially helpful when teaching students, having a team meeting or discuss with other programmers, etc.

#Installation Before using code connect, you should get a server end installed and running or just use an existing server.
You can install via brackets's extension manager, or clone this repository into the user folder under the brackets's extension folder.
You should use cmd + R (mac) or F5 (windows/linux) to refresh brackets in order to load extensions properly.

#Usage ##Registering a new channel Open View -> Register new channel, enter the server URL with port (e.g. http://localhost:6006 the default port will be 6006) and the channel ID.
Channel ID should be only consist of latin letters or underscore, and the underscore cannot be placed at the beginning of ID neither the ending.
Legal channel ID examples: code_Connect, CoDeConnecT, code, C. We suggest you use package naming convension with dots replaced by underscore, like io_brackets_codeconnect, com_john_channel.
Illegal channel ID examples: _code_connect, code123, code_connect_, code#connect, code.connect.
You will be the owner of the created channel.

##Join an existing channel Open View -> Join a channel, fill in the informations just like registering a new channel.
Be sure to open up an actived editor (that you can type) so that the channel owner can sync his/her code to you. The simplest way to do this is just create an untitled document.

##Quit an channel Open View -> Quit channel, them it will say goodbye to you :)
