Hi, congratulations on ViperIDE, did you create it yourself? The interface is great, as an editor it lacks basic functionality. But as a starting step it is great. Bravo

Yes this is my side-project. The core of the UI was created by ChatGPT and then polished :) Which basic features are missing from the editor?

I’m curious what basic functionality you think is missing?

It's hosted here: https://viper-ide.org/

I'm actually using it, right now, already. I happened to have a RP2040 board right here I was just writing some micropython for.

I think this is a good way to quick-start with the boards moreso than using the Thonny IDE. It handles the filesystem access perfectly.

If the README included the tl;dr installation instructions, I'd be trying this out already.

You don't need to build it, it's hosted on https://viper-ide.org Also, this is Vanilla JS, so just opening the HTML file locally also works :)

P.S. I just realized I'm using the older CodeMirror 5 component for the editor. Migrating to CM6 will require the use of bundler.

The good news on the othe hand, the editor will get much better.
