Troubleshooting

§1 Syntax Definition Parse Errors

Blade extends Sublime Text's HTML syntax definition.

If Blade syntax highlighting doesn't work and console displays syntax errors in HTML (Blade).sublime-syntax, please make sure to remove any out-dated syntax override.

Steps:

1. call Menu > Preferences > Browse Packages..
2. Look for HTML folder
3. Remove it or at least delete any syntax definition in it.

§2 Scripts are not correctly highlighted

Blade relies on JavaScript (source.js), JSX (source.jsx), TypeScript (source.ts) and TSX (source.tsx) to scope script blocks and inline scripts.

Make sure to remove related out-dated syntax packages, which don't meet least compatibility requirements.

They can be identified by calling e.g. sublime.find_syntax_by_scope("source.ts") in ST's console.

Known candidates are:

• JavaScriptNext - ES6 Syntax
• Naomi
• TypeScript
• TypeScript Syntax
