Brackets syntax coloring for AngularJS inline-templates

In the Brackets editor, have you noticed that the HTML within <SCRIPT type="text/ng-template"> is not syntax-colored? Here is how to fix it.

Background

AngularJS has support for inline HTML templates. I am going to explain here only how to get the syntax coloring working, not what inline-templates actually are. To create an inline-template, you put the template's HTML into a SCRIPT tag like this:

    <SCRIPT type="text/ng-template" id="/path/to/your/template.html">template: {{HTML}} here</SCRIPT>

Unit testing Angular.js app with node.js, mocha, angular-mocks and jsdom	unit-testing-angular-js-app-with-node	2015-07-05T18:04:33Z	en	Majority of search result about unit testing Angular.js apps is about how to do it by using test frameworks that run the tests in a real browser. Even though it's great to be able to test your code in multiple platforms, in my opinion it creates a lot of boilerplate code and makes it hard to run the tests in, for instance a CI-server.

Testing Angular.js app headlessly with node.js + mocha

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

• elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

@kangax's ES6 quiz, explained

@kangax created a new interesting quiz, this time devoted to ES6 (aka ES2015). I found this quiz very interesting and quite hard (made myself 3 mistakes on first pass).

Here we go with the explanations:

Question 1:

(function(x, f = () => x) {
