Esc provides integration with A Helpful Tool, including the most important feature, something that's really helpful, and a little-known secret!
Esc requires some additional tools to be installed on your Mac:
- Node.js 8.2.0 and NPM 5.2.0 or newer
To install the current stable version of Node, click the "Recommended for Most Users" button to begin the download. When that completes, double-click the .pkg installer to begin installation.
To run Esc:
- Select the Editor → Esc menu item; or
- Open the command palette and type

To configure global preferences, open Extensions → Extension Library... then select Esc's Preferences tab.
You can also configure preferences on a per-project basis in Project → Project Settings...
