Description Christian Lenz 2016-02-05 08:40:04 UTC 
Inside the HTML/JS options, you have Bower, Grunt, Gulp, and so on. On each tab there is a link called "install bower", "install sass", "install grunt" etc. these links opens the browser and link to the place where I have to download and install it by my own. What I expect is that install will do an "npm install -g bower" for the tools. This would be very handy to set the functionality to this link to install it via npm and not open an external link.


Regards

Chris
