The Bower IDE's (See: Bug #459732 -Bower IDE contribution) needs an editor for bower.json files

There should be at least text-based editor with content assist support for bower.json file. Form editor is good solution but it's good when it's used in cooperation with the text one. See MANIFEST.MF/plugin.xml or pom.xml editors as an example. This looks like a feature request for the near future.

Victor I  have the intention to contribute to WTP with JSON Editor https://github.com/angelozerr/eclipse-wtp-json

It is based on SSE and works like other WTP Editor (XML, CSS) with a IJSONModel. It starts working (syntax coloring, folder, outline, hover). You can see screenshot about those features at https://github.com/angelozerr/eclipse-wtp-json/wiki

I'm working on JSON Schema support for completion (see issue https://github.com/angelozerr/eclipse-wtp-json/issues/4) and bower.json should work for completion of JSON key name  JSON by using http://json.schemastore.org/bower (see http://schemastore.org/)

For JSON value completion, JSON Editor will provide https://github.com/angelozerr/eclipse-wtp-json/blob/master/core/org.eclipse.wst.json.ui/src/org/eclipse/wst/json/ui/contentassist/DefaultJSONCompletionProposalComputer.java like XML Editor (I'm implemnting it).

I have the intention to contribut eto WTP soon. Hope you will like it.

As JSON Editor contribution includes Bower editor and it's moved into SSE, closing it as duplicate of Bug #471820
