I have said this before and I will say it again. After scouring the net, this is by far the best tutorial if you need to set up a Python environment with Sublime Text 3. If you happen to be reading this, take note and watch the video:)

What makes a teacher interesting? She or He knows the material AND knows how to present it. That takes time and effort. Repetition is important without making it all boring. Corey is one of the great teachers for this material.

I work in Operations consulting with a lot of ERPs and WMS' and decided to learn python as it was a really versatile language. These videos, in conjunction with the book "Learning Python", have helped along tremendously. Thank you so much!

In windows split shortcut is :
Alt+Shift+2 to split in 2 columns
Alt+Shift+3 to split in 3 columns
Alt+Shift+4 to split in 4 columns
Alt+Shift+8 to split in 2 rows
Alt+Shift+9 to split in 3 rows
Alt+Shift+5 to split in grid of 4

or
View>Layout>(select option)

It is for Sublime Text 3

What a great explanation! Now I understand a lot of things about text editors and not only for Sublime. Thank you so much, Corey!

Just found your videos today Corey (Nov. 23, 2017). Best thing that ever happened for my Python learning! Thank You!

3.5 years later...this is still this best tutorial on Sublime Text. Thanks!

[vitwxwr]

Thanks Corey, your excellent tutorials got me flying with python in no time some years ago. I've created a lot of valuable applications for my work with it since. I had followed your setup for atom and used it for years until a disc corruption killed it today. Of course, atom now no longer available. Now trying sublime and following your lead again. Thanks again.

Immediately subscribed your channel.
Really crisp and to the point videos.
Absolutely loving it.

Thanks Corey. I love Sublime Text3 and haven't been using it because I didn't really know how to set it up as a newbie. This really helps. Now I don't have to dink around with PyCharm or Visual Studio Code. I have nothing against those tools, but I'd much rather use Sublime Text while I'm learning and just trying things out. I really appreciate this tutorial and you thorough mastery of the subject matter. Kudos, dude.

[JoshuaDHarvey]

Great video, thank you! Also, at 7:06 the material theme read-me was appended below the predawn message. Also 14:50 the Windows shortcut is Alt + Shift + 2

As of today 27 August, 2018, I decided to take up coding as a hobby. After a bit of reading I decided on Python. I searched the web high and low for a solid tutorial on how to get started, to no avail. I am a Cyber Security guy by trade, and figured coding would be similar to pushing patches in BigFix. I was definitely wrong. I cannot wait to get this new hobby up and going, as well as, diving deeper into your videos. Thank you!!

[ronikant]

Hey I'm having trouble getting the colour code on my code I tried sublimeREPL and it didn't change anything... Any tips?

[phillinolph]

Your videos are fantastic! Thank you for putting everything in the description and for being so thorough. You do a great job going from the big picture reasoning for doing something down to the details of execution.

[petitehobbitte]

Thank you so much. Very clear. There was a problem with the server tonight and I couldn't install any packages, but fortunately someone posted an old link to a stable url on a forum and I was able to add it to my user profile, temporarly. Now I can start learning Python (I know C and JS) to better serve my patrons at my library - I'm a librarian. Cheers!

If anyone is getting a "[WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified" issue, this comment from Corey was buried in the comments. I spent a good hour and a bit trying to figure it out. You might have to change the "\" in your file path in your command prompt to "/" when you put it in your path in your *.sublime-build file. This is what he commented:


Hi there. The PATH to Python is different in Windows than it is on a Unix-like machine. Try opening your command prompt and running Python, and then run the following code:
import sys
print(sys.executable)

It should show the PATH you need to put into your build system instead of the current "/usr/local/bin/python3.5"

I hope that helps!

For windows split screen mode is Alt+Shift+2 or View, Layout, Columns: 2
edit: im talking about this part 14:47

[DrJinKwon]

Hi, I'm on a mac but it says that python: cannot open file, and the print line doesn't build. How can i fix this?

Corey is the first person to appear for any of my programming YouTube searches

Oh my god, sublime text is so good. I cant stand how slow PyCharm is, and I needed a little bit more functionality than just using the IDLE editor. I appreciate this video
