If I were them I might try to integrate with some existing open source plugin system (Atom or VSCode?) to get more supported languages for free.

Wait a second - that's what they did? They picked Monaco which is the code editor for VSCode. They also referenced in the article how they stuck with similar UX as Atom and VSCode as well.

They use the monaco editor which is the editor from VS code so it's probably not far away.
