+# David's Sublime Hints
+
+## Hint 1 - Set default indentation to 2 spaces
+
+A tab size of 2 almost always looks better and can fit more on screen
+
+* Click on `Sublime Text` -> `Preferences` -> `Settings - User`
+* Alter the file to add `"tab_size: 2"` and save it
+
+Mine looks like the following: 
+
+```json
+{
+	"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Solarized (Light).tmTheme",
+	"font_size": 20,
+	"ignored_packages":
+	[
+		"Vintage"
+	],
+	"tab_size": 2
+}
+```
+
+## Hint 2 - Install Sublime Autocomplete All
+
+It's more helpful to have autocomplete across all of your open files, as we have more an more files open. Fortunately, there's a [plugin for that](https://github.com/alienhard/SublimeAllAutocomplete)!
+
+Hit `cmd+shift+p` in Sublime to open the Command Pallete. Start typing 'install' to select `'Package Control: Install Package'`, then search for `AllAutocomplete` and select it. That's it.
+
+## Hint 3 - Install [JSHint](https://github.com/victorporof/Sublime-JSHint) for automatic JavaScript linting
+
+Linting is automatically evaluating your code for syntax errors, style and best practices. And we've got a tool for it!
+
+This is a bit more complicated, as it requires you install Node.js. 
+
+* Install [Node.js and NPM](http://madebyhoundstooth.com/blog/install-node-with-homebrew-on-os-x/). You still may find better instructions out there
+* Run `npm install jshint` from your bash terminal. 
+* Install Sublime-JSHint. `Cmd+Shift+P` in Sublime. Start typing `install`, select `Package Control: Install Package`
+type `js gutter`, select JSHint Gutter
+* Configure JS Gutter/JSHint. Hit `Cmd+Shift+P` and start typing `jshint set plugin` and go to the Set Plugin Options. Set `lint_on_edit` and `lint_on_save` to be true. Save the file. Now when you edit/save a JavaScript file it will automatically lint!
+*
+
+#### Minor note with JSHint
+
+It will probably bug you about stuff that you don't want to be bothered about. [Consult this link](https://github.com/victorporof/Sublime-JSHint#using-your-own-jshintrc-options) on configuring a hidden `.jshintrc` file in each of your projects to configure what type of things you want JSHint to look for.
