Can you switch back to the old code editor?

Is it possible to revert back to the old code editor? This new one is horrid and full of errors. Extremely difficult to use.

I have been searching through my old development stores in hope to find one containing the old code editor, along with creating new stores - no luck so far!

Hey mate!

I am not sure about reverting back to the old code editor, but have you ever considered using the CLI or Themekit? I am unsure about your experience but it allows you to use an independent IDE, such as VS Code (which is free). It takes a bit to setup, but will make your life a whole lot easier. There is a whole marketplace for extensions which help a heap!

I personally use Themekit (call me old school) and use bitbucket for source control. My development flow is:

  1. Create a new branch
  2. Create a theme
  3. Set a new key in the Themekit config from the branch
  4. theme watch to automatically upload any changes to Shopify

Let me know if you would like a bit more info. If you follow the guide, it should get you up and running. Once set up you will never look back.
