Projects

http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/3/projects.html

Assume you've got a folder full of code called myproject. Go to Project -> Save Project As... and save the project just inside that folder. This will create myproject.sublime-project and myproject.sublime-workspace files. As a general rule, the sublime-project file would be checked into version control, while the sublime-workspace file would not.

Add subfolders to the project with Project -> Add Folder to Project...

Package Control

Must install Package Control manually: https://sublime.wbond.net/installation

Then install the packages you want: Ctrl+Shift+P install ...

Customizing

• Open Default Settings (Preferences -> Settings -- Default) to find and copy the relevant setting.
• Open User Settings (Preferences -> Settings -- User) and paste in the line you want with the appropriate change.

{
	"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Solarized (Light).tmTheme",
