[Tex/LaTex] How to setup latex extension on Adobe Brackets

compilingeditors

I use Adobe Brackets for most of my coding. Recently, I decided to do my latex coding on Brackets as well. Luckily, someone has come up with a solution. The extension for Brackets is very easy to install.

However, I have a hard time figuring out how to compile my latex files within Brackets. Has anyone figured this out yet?

When I compile, I get this message: "usr/texbin/dflatex No such file or directory" and I have tried to change the directory but for some reason it doesn't work.

Assuming you have downloaded and installed “brackets-latex”, open the preferences and modify the brackets.json file shown on the right pane so it contains the last line

{
    "fonts.fontSize": "18px",
    "fonts.fontFamily": "'SourceCodePro-Medium', ＭＳ ゴシック, 'MS Gothic', monospace",
    "brackets-latex.texBinDirectory": "/Library/TeX/texbin"
}

enter image description here

The initial lines are what I had by default (I only changed 12px to 18px)

Save and compile.
