My First Brackets Extension: CSSLint

this weekend i worked on my first extension for brackets - csslint . the experience was pretty interesting. much like writing extensions for coldfusion builder, your time is split between creating the ui/extension connection points and the actual logic of the extension itself. in this case, since it was my first extension, i'd say 95% of was on the "extension" aspect and the rest on running csslint. which is to be expected i think. the csslint tool is trivial to implement in code. in fact, once i got the current document in brackets i just had to do this:

results = csslint.verify(text);

here's a quick screen shot of the results. if you are curious - it was run on a file from jquery ui.

here's a shot showing a complete view of brackets and my extension running:

if you are playing around with brackets, you can download the extension and give it a shot. let me know what you think.
