A Sublime Text plugin for viewing, editing, and extracting package resources directly within the editor.
PackageResourceViewer is a Sublime Text plugin that allows developers to view, edit, and extract package resources directly within the editor. It solves the problem of needing to manually navigate file systems to access and modify Sublime Text package files, streamlining customization and exploration.
Sublime Text power users, theme developers, and package creators who need to inspect or modify package resources frequently.
Developers choose PackageResourceViewer for its seamless integration into Sublime Text, eliminating external file browsing and providing dedicated commands for resource access, editing, and package extraction.

Provides commands like 'Open Resource' and 'Edit Package Resource' that allow direct file manipulation without leaving Sublime Text, streamlining workflow as detailed in the Usage section.
Offers separate read-only viewing and editable modes through commands like 'View Package Resource' and 'Edit Package Resource', preventing accidental modifications while enabling customization.
The 'Extract Package' command, available only in Sublime Text 3, unpacks entire packages to the Packages directory for comprehensive exploration, simplifying resource access.
User-configurable settings such as ignore patterns and command display allow tailoring the plugin to individual workflows, as described in the Settings section of the README.
Key features like 'Extract Package' are only available in Sublime Text 3, not ST2, restricting functionality for users on older versions without clear upgrade paths.
While Package Control is recommended, manual installation requires precise directory placement and a Sublime Text restart, which can be error-prone for less technical users.
The plugin is exclusively for Sublime Text, making it useless for developers in VS Code, Atom, or other editors, limiting its broader applicability.
