[QA04] Is it possible to download and edit remote files directly in Sublime?
We say it a lot; Sublime Text is very customizable, allowing you to adapt it to your workflow so you can work faster and be more efficient. What if you want to edit remote web files though? Is it possible to download remote files directly to Sublime for editing?
This is a question that was asked of my in my Discord server as well as in a comment here on the channel. There are a couple of packages that might be used for something like this (SFTP and file-downloader) but neither of these packages suits the purpose at hand - ad-hoc downloading of URL's to edit and view their contents locally.
In just under two hours of work, I put together a simple package that can do exactly that, which showcases just how extensible and customizable Sublime Text is.
