=====

|
Caret is a serious, graphical programmer's editor running as a Chrome Packaged App. Inspired by Sublime and built on top of the Ace editing component, it offers powerful features like:
|
|
|
|
* multiple cursors
|
|
* tabbed editing and retained files
|
|
* syntax highlighting and themes
|
|
* command palette/smart go to
|
|
* hackable, synchronized configuration files
|
|
* project files and folder view
|
|
|
|
More information, links to Caret in the Chrome Web Store, and an external package file are available at http://thomaswilburn.net/caret. Documentation can be found in the [wiki](https://github.com/thomaswilburn/Caret/wiki).

You can also easily load Caret from source, either to hack around on or to have the absolute bleeding edge. You'll need to have Node and NPM installed first, then follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
0. Clone this repo to your local machine
|
|
0. Run `npm install` to get the development dependencies (Grunt, LESS, and some other packages)
|
|
0. Start `grunt`, which will generate the CSS files from the LESS source
|
|
0. Visit `chrome://extensions` and enable Developer Mode.
|
|
0. Still on the extensions page, click the button marked "Load unpacked extension..." and select the directory containing Caret's manifest.json.
