These are my Sublime Text settings.

I run the default theme with some modifications:

Add these to Preferences/Settings:

{
    "color_scheme": "Packages/User/Color Highlighter/themes/Monokai Extended.tmTheme",
    "font_size": 13,
    "open_files_in_new_window": false,
    "preview_on_click": false,
    "save_on_focus_lost": true,
    "show_definitions": false,
    "translate_tabs_to_spaces": true,
    "enable_tab_scrolling": false
}

Here is more detail on these settings.

Open files in new tabs:

"open_files_in_new_window": false,
"preview_on_click": false,

Autosave files:

"save_on_focus_lost": true,

Tabs to spaces:

"translate_tabs_to_spaces": true,

Resize the width of file tabs so that you can see all the tabs that are open:

"enable_tab_scrolling": false

Sublime Text Packages

I have a few packages installed:

  • AutoFileName
  • BracketHiglighter
  • Javascript Beautify
  • Pretty JSON
  • sublack
  • Typewriter (in scrolling mode)
  • UnicodeMath
  • Word Count
  • HTML/CSS/JS Prettify
  • JsPrettier
  • ColorPicker

Edit the color scheme for markdown

See the Sublimetext docs for scope naming here

Go Preferences/Customize Color Scheme.

On the right side there is room to add rules.

For example, if you want to change the font color of inline code blocks.

"rules":
  [
    {
      "scope": "markup.raw.inline",
      "foreground": "#ff2a27"
    }
  ]

Use the foreground to change the font color.
