Before & After

Installation

Install Package Control Install CSS3 Platform Install Command Mac cmd+shift+p → Package Control: Install Package → CSS3 Linux/Windows ctrl+shift+p → Package Control: Install Package → CSS3 (Required) Disable the default CSS package Platform Disable Command Mac cmd+shift+p → Package Control: Disable Package → CSS Linux/Windows ctrl+shift+p → Package Control: Disable Package → CSS Make sure you don't have any open files set to the default CSS syntax (bottom-right) or you may get an error message. (Strongly Recommended) Enable completions inside completions By default, Sublime will not offer completions inside completions. In other words, the completions menu is suppressed when you're tabbing through a snippet. This prevents a lot of CSS3 completions from appearing. Add these keys to your User Settings to fix this: "auto_complete_commit_on_tab" : true , "auto_complete_with_fields" : true , (Recommended) Hide CSS completions from Emmet If you have Emmet installed, its completions will drown out the carefully researched, standards-based completions offered by this package. You can hide Emmet completions without disabling them by adding this line to your Emmet package settings. “json "show_css_completions”: false (Recommended) Set CSS3 as the default language for .css files Open a .css file.

file. View → Syntax → Open all with current extension as… → CSS3

Best Practices

Always use quotes inside url() . Unquoted URLs are intentionally not highlighted.

Definitely check out the CONTRIBUTING guidelines before submitting your PR. It could save you a lot of time. I'll be monitoring the specs as they're updated on this W3C feed, but I still need your help. Let's keep bad code out of the Web!
