Announcing our latest release v0.3.6!🎉 This version packs in new features that continue to bring CodeEdit up to speed for use as a daily driver editor. Terminal task output, invisible characters, editor restoration, external file changes, and more! Read on! ⬇️

Previously, tasks displayed their output as plain text. Now they run in a specialized terminal built just for tasks. They're interactive, output color, and everything else you'd expect from your terminal!

Drawing invisible characters is one of our oldest open issues. This release finally closes it! You can now enable invisible characters, and customize which ones show as well as the placeholders used in their place.

A long-time pain point when working across multiple files was that CodeEdit didn’t remember your place when switching tabs. That’s fixed! CodeEdit will remember your scroll position and cursor placements between tabs, and between sessions so you can pick up right where you left off.

For those of you who like to live life on the edge, we’ve included an experimental language server installation menu. From here, you can install servers for most languages. We’ll be iterating quickly, so expect frequent updates on this.

We've implemented performance improvements in our open-source Swift text view that reduces CPU time by up to 87% on each keystroke. The whole editor should feel more snappy! Our text view is also now completely compatible with all available macOS accessibility APIs! github.com/CodeEditApp/...
