Does this offer any real benefit over the official list on the sublime package control page?

http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/community

One suggestion to bring it to at least feature parity: It is useful to display the operating systems that each package supports.

Just a heads up for anyone interested. I've been working on a very significant revamp of the Package Control site that coincides with all of my work on Package Control 2.0. I've been pushing hard the past couple of weeks, with a hopeful launch in the next couple of days.

that is so awesome.

I just do cmd+shft+p > Install Package

That gives you instant search.

stphnclysmth2• 13 years ago

The benefit of an online listing is easy access to package descriptions and repositories. When there are multiple packages for a given task, I'd like to know which is more heavily updated and supported. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe there's a way to open the Github page from that menu.

Is it just painfully slow for me?

kilkurdu• 13 years ago

not just for you..

taspeotis• 13 years ago

I got a "502 Bad Gateway | nginx" error, then it loaded (nice use of Bootstrap 3 RC1) and then it was slow.

Why voting on this?

When I middle-click on a link, I expect it to open in a new tab. When browsing lists of things I tend to scroll through the list and open a bunch of tabs, then peruse them at my leisure later on, and I can't do that on your site.

Middle click to open in a new tab seems ok for me (Chrome 28 Stable on Win7 x64).

brbcoding• 13 years ago

Middle click doesn't seem to work on Chrome 28.0.1500.72 on Win8 x64... It does, however, work on 30.0.1582.0 canary.

A bit off topic, but it's better to ask here than to create another thread.

I'm teaching myself HTML, and CSS and JS (jQuery). Are there any essential Sublime Text packages that I have to install? I searched it on DDG but it wasn't very helpful (most of the articles were outdated).

PS: I only have "Package Control" installed.

raziel2p• 13 years ago

Have to, absolutely not - but you'll find that Emmet is extremely useful for HTML.

JonnieCache• 13 years ago

Some non language specific ones I use constantly: SublimeLinter, Sidebar Enhancements, Git, Quick File Creator, FileDiffs.

So glad more people than me frequently misspell pacakges...

schappim• 13 years ago

Mod, could you please fix the typo in the title from pacakges to packages!

thoughtpalette2• 13 years ago

Does anyone know what package is being used for the Blue folder icons and search bar icons?

http://sublimepackages.com/#/details/theme-flatland

publicfig• 13 years ago

I think that's flatland itself.

thoughtpalette2• 13 years ago

Oh neat. I didn't want to change the text theme since I like monokai.

Thanks for responding!

Jemaclus• 13 years ago

Couple of suggestions:

* Add categories (by language, software integration, accessibility, whatever) * Add links to the package website and/or Github url * Add screenshots for every package, especially themes. Nothing worse than clicking on "Uber Theme VIII" only to see that it says "Here's a new theme called Uber Theme VIII" but I'd have to install it to find out what it looks like. No thanks.

stphnclysmth2• 13 years ago

There's a small link to the repository in the meta line below each project description, next to the last modified date. It's hard to find. I was coming here to suggest that on package detail pages, the package name should link to the project repository, and not recursively to the detail page. That was my instinctual expectation.

hey, site author here

I'm planning to add these features in the upcoming days/weeks:

- load package infos from other sources than github - st 2/3 version compatibility - supported platform - faceted search

right now the website is as minimal as possible, I wanted to ship something as quickly as possible to have the fastest possible feedback. I wasn't expecting someone to post on HN though — nor my poor ec2 micro instance did ;)

links to the package website and/or Github url

It's always there :)

Add screenshots for every package, especially themes

Lots of theme developers already put theme in their README, though I agree some don't and it's painful. I'll see what I can do.

ReferenceError: angular is not defined

Maybe this still needs some love...

znowi• 13 years ago

Error: EMFILE, open '/var/www/stpackages/static/index.html'

Node.js isn't happy :)

joshuak• 13 years ago

Am I the only one that is annoyed that the MXML/AS highlighting package is called flex, and there is no flex lexer highlighting package?

auxbuss• 13 years ago

Nice works. Thanks. HN is a tough crowd, but means well. Great advice here.
