Using Emmet in blade files in Atom

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get used to the Atom text editor instead of Sublime Text, since it's free and I like how it looks/feel.

I'm facing an issue with one my favorite package : Emmet. The tab key autocomplete will only works in HTML files (and a few other select languages), it will not work in blade files. It does work if I go to "Packages > Emmet > Expand", but that's very slow compared to just pressing a key.

I was wondering if anyone got it to work with blade files? I've read about it and tried a bunch of different things, but nothing worked for blade files. This is unfortunate, I'd really like to use the editor but can't stand the loss of speed and ease of usage that comes with a barely working Emmet.

Any help would be really appreciated, it's a long-stretch to ask here but I figure some of you might use Atom in their laravel projects.

In Atom, hit ctrl + option + return. That brings up an input at the bottom where you type your emmet code and it will show up in real time.
