Install Package Control for easy package management.
- Open the console with
Ctrl+` - Paste in the following:
import urllib.request,os; pf = 'Package Control.sublime-package'; ipp = sublime.installed_packages_path(); urllib.request.install_opener( urllib.request.build_opener( urllib.request.ProxyHandler()) ); open(os.path.join(ipp, pf), 'wb').write(urllib.request.urlopen( 'http://sublime.wbond.net/' + pf.replace(' ','%20')).read())
From here on out, use Package Control to install everything. ⌘+Shift+P, then type Install to get a list of installable packages you can livesearch through. Watch the Status Bar for installation progress.
Install Material Theme for some UI customisations. You'll need to restart Sublime after installation for the changes to take effect.
I prefer the darker version. See the JSON settings below to see how to set it.
About the color scheme, I got used with Monokai Extended colors.

Accessible via: SublimeText → Preferences → Key Bindings – User.
Key bindings are the productivity engine which allow you to become one with your text editor. I try to stick with all the defaults to make for an easy install and less chance of potential future clashes. The following are a few small edits I make along with some package specific controls:
[
// Reveal the currently open file in the sidebar
{ "keys": ["ctrl+super+r"], "command": "reveal_in_side_bar" },
// AdvancedNewFile
{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+n"], "command": "advanced_new_file_new" },
// Create a new snippet [Jeffrey Way]
{ "keys": ["alt+super+n"], "command": "new_snippet" },
// Open iTerm
{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+t"], "command": "open_terminal" },
// Select (or type) the syntax to apply to the current view.
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+y"], "command": "show_overlay", "args": {"overlay": "command_palette", "text": "Set Syntax: "} },
// swap the keybindings for paste and paste_and_indent
{ "keys": ["super+v"], "command": "paste_and_indent" },
{ "keys": ["super+shift+v"], "command": "paste" },
// [HTMLPrettify] Format your HTML, CSS, and JS
{ "keys": ["super+shift+h"], "command": "htmlprettify" },
// Close tag
{ "keys": ["super+."], "command": "close_tag" },
// Alignment
{ "keys": ["super+shift+a"], "command": "alignment" },
// Wrap selection in tag
{
"keys" : ["alt+shift+t"],
"command" : "insert_snippet",
"args": {
"contents": "<${1:p}>${0:$SELECTION}</${1}>"
}
},
