anyone know how to add images to Brackets text editor?

Specifically, to a working file. I'm trying to create an animation. Normally you can just click and drag images to the file tree in whatever text editor you're using. I've never tried adding images in Brackets before so I didn't know how. I've googled it, tried many different things on my own and now I'm asking here because quite frankly, this seems like it should be a really easy thing to figure out. Not sure why it's not as simple as other editor's. Any help is much appreciated!

Hi Andrew,

Brackets considers folders as projects, so: FileOpen Folder, and from there you can navigate to the image within Brackets—inside whichever folder it's in, e.g., img.

Thank you! That was actually very simple. Almost... too simple -_-

I had the same doubt and found the answer right here. Thanks!

yeah but after adding the picture to Brackets you can't use it ! how to use it ? i type the image folder's name and all but it doesn't appear as a picture in the web page .

The same. In the workspace you can create the folder with images. How can I add it to Brackets? Confused. It's to do with this relative source..
