Zachary Dunn
6,557 PointsIm looking for an 'editor' that is similar to workspaces... able to upload images and fonts....
Im currently using text wrangler and do not want to find all the links attached to my uploaded files. is there a program that allows for uploaded images directly into the 'editor' or program?
Carolyn Heuser
2,816 PointsThanks for your question, Zachary! I'm new to Treehouse and just finished my How to Make a Webpage class. I was hoping to experiment with what I'd learned, and I was disappointed to find that I couldn't upload my images in Workspaces. I've now downloaded Brackets, as suggested.

2,816 PointsThanks, Ted! I haven't been through the Basic HTML class yet. But I'll try again later to get my images into Workspaces. I was able to get them into Brackets by moving them to a particular subfolder under my index.html and opening the whole folder as a Brackets project.
Ted Sumner
Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsYes, I use Brackets for all of my development. The only catch is that you need to install a server emulator like XAMPP for languages like PHP. Then the projects have to be in the htdocs folder in the XAMPP folder. But that is not hard to do.

6,557 Pointsmy friend... workspaces is an awesome editor... but i cannot upload files to a hosting site from it.
Ted Sumner
Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsYou can download the workspace under the file menu and upload it to a live site with Filezilla or other similar program.
Zachary Dunn
6,557 Pointswhen i download the workspace... under what program do i save the file?
Ted Sumner
Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsI have not actually tried it, but I assume you get a compressed folder with all the files in it. Then you use a text editor to make changes if you want. I use Brackets as noted above. It is well done and free.

2,816 PointsTed Sumner, I wanted to say "thanks" again for the Brackets suggestion. As I'm working my way through my Treehouse videos, I've started building some web pages in Brackets to help me practice my newly-acquired skills. I'm learning so much and quickly becoming addicted to web page development.
