# PackageDev - The Sublime Text Meta Package

PackageDev provides syntax highlighting

and other helpful utility for Sublime Text resource files.

Resource files are ways of configuring the Sublime Text text editor

to various extends,

including but not limited to:

custom syntax definitions,

context menus (and the main menu),

and key bindings.

Thus, this package is ideal for package developers,

but even normal users of Sublime Text

who want to configure it to their liking

should find it very useful.

## Installation

Install the package using [Package Control][].

The package's name is PackageDev.

PackageDev was made for **Sublime Text 3**.

An older unmaintained version

can still be installed for Sublime Text 2, however.

[Package Control]: https://packagecontrol.io/

## Getting Started

Syntax highlighting for various resource files

is available immediately.

Various commands,

for example creating a new resource,

are made available

through the command palette (Primary+Shift+P)

with the "PackageDev:" prefix

and in the main menu under *Tools → Packages → Package Development*,

*Note*:

The Primary key refers to

Ctrl on Windows and Linux

and Command (⌘) on macOS.

## Documentation
