Turn Off Autocompletion in Brackets

Brackets is an outstanding code editor.

However, if you’re just learning to code, you will want to discipline yourself to know the syntax without Brackets holding your hand.

To turn off code autocompletion as well as smart indentation, add these preferences to your user preferences file:


// Turns off autocompletion and smart indents
// Add the following lines to your user preferences json file
{
"codehint.AttrHints": false,
"codehint.CssPropHints": false,
"codehint.SpecialCharHints": false,
"codehint.TagHints": false,
"codehint.UrlCodeHints": false,
"closeBrackets": false,
"closeTags": { "whenOpening": false, "whenClosing": false, "indentTags": [] },
"smartIndent": false
}
