Just wondering what everyone uses to edit/develop there YAML/YML scripts and if any editors have built in SYNTAX highlighting/debug for assisting in catching indention issues.

I use Emacs, and recently found https://github.com/yoshiki/yaml-mode; it
seems pretty good.

Bash on windows's vi (basically Ubuntu) does yaml syntax highlighting out of the box, althoughi find it a lot easier to read if you change the text to black and the background to white. Notepad++ also yaml aware. Sometimes I use yamllint.com too.

Is it easier to read because of the white background or because of the syntax highlighting colours not really being visible against a dark background? vim has an option for dark background: set background=dark , which helps a lot when I use a terminal emulator with a dark background.

I use SublimeText 3. It helps with indentation and has good syntax highlighting. Atom is another good editor I hear.

I use vim which has good syntax highliting (using yaml with doublecolon, not equal to have good highliting, not a problem because it is the prefered way to write yaml)

Hello Guys,

Hello there,

there is a Ansible plugin for IntelliJ (community edition is sufficient) which even has a rudimentary navigation capability, so you may directly navigate to included roles (does not work for nested roles, however).
