Usage

The Concourse editor automatically activates when the name of the file you are editing is pipeline.yml or task.yml. Alternately, you can select the grammar for your file by doing these steps:

Open the file, and it will most likely open with the default Atom YAML editor.
In the bottom-right of the editor, click on YAML.
This opens the Grammar Selection dialogue. Search and select Concourse-Pipeline-YAML for pipeline files, or Concourse-Task-YAML for task files.
