Lapce dev here. Firstly sorry for the bad experience for some people. Just a bit of context here to explain the status of the project. The first line of code was started around 201…

Lapce dev here. Thanks for posting this. One thing I would like to highlight about the WASI based plugin system is that, on this release we’ve finalised our API design. We call it …

It's mainly speed. I don't know if it's fixed now. Previously when I was using VSCode, sometimes the "go to definition" hangs and it will freeze the whole editor, which was unaccep…

Yes, for more than one year now.

I always wanted a "perfect" editor https://github.com/lapce/lapce/blob/master/docs/why-lapce.md And my recent professional work was writing Rust, and I felt Rust would be really su…

render the glyph texture map and then quads for each character

It's similar to VSCode's remote development https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview Or trying to be.

Thanks for your kind words. It will, it's in the DNA. L comes before P.

Author here. Thanks for all the feedback. I'm aware that Lapce lacks lots of basic stuff. It's a personal project so the initial set of features and key bindings are tight to my pe…

Potentially, the UI bits Lapce uses such as Druid, Winit, Wgpu all have the potential to compile into WASM. But it's not a priority.

It is a bit similar. When I thought about Lapce's logo, I took the initials of "Lightning" and "Powerful", so put L and P together to form a logo. I guess Linkin Park is L and P to…

WASM is targeting web. WASI( https://wasi.dev/ ) is the system interface.

Hey HN, I made a code editor which is inspired by Xi-editor. It's native GUI and GPU rendered written in Rust. A main feature is remote development support (VSCode like). Also othe…

It uses a heavily forked version of Druid. https://github.com/lapce/druid which replaces the window management to use winit instead https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit and a se…

I think native compiled code is hard for plugin distributions. You'll need to target 3 main platforms Linux/macOS/Windows. You can use github actions to do it, but it would be so e…

Author here. I didn't expect this will go on Hacker News. Although the editor has been my daily drive for almost one year now, it's really rough on the edges. The plugin system as …
