This repo is no longer maintained and the extension may not work correctly or at all. Please fork it and pick it up where I left it for the next gen of coders. Do it!! Good luck!
Finally!
A Brackets extension that saves your file as you type. No need to constantly press Ctrl/CMD + S. It helps you achieve a perfect workflow with file watchers (Gulp, Grunt, npm, CodeKit...). Almost 100k installs.
Simple demo gif:
Brackets-autosaver hooks to key presses. To avoid triggering a file save command on every-single-keypress the extension waits 400ms (or any other delay of your choosing) from the last key pulsation.
So once you're finished typing a few words or a simple correction, then it saves the document (always the one you just edited).
It also detects changes made by cuting or pasting contents.
Nope. You can turn this feature on and off easily from the File menu. So just check or uncheck File -> Enable auto saving.
Like any other Brackets extension. Either look for it within Brackets extension manager or download this repo and drop it on Brackets.
