Possible to use Emmet with React .jsx files in Dreamweaver?

Report · Jan 22, 2019

I've started coding in React.js, but Emmet seems to be working intermittently. It worked for "button" but not "div>h1+p". Is it possible to enable Emmet to work fully when coding .jsx files in Dreamweaver? If so, how?

I'm using Dreamweaver CC 19.0.

Aside from the On/Off toggle in Preferences, we don't get any other controls for Emmet inside Dreamweaver.

If something's not working as it should be, it's likely because the implementation of Emmet that DW uses is incomplete.

Try switching to HTML from the document type drop list. See screenshot. Then try Emmet shortcodes.

Go to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Brackets and open brackets.json. Add the higlighted line

Edit: Don't forget the comma at the end of the previous line
