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/...

We've added support for external file changes. If you lint a file, or pull changes from git, those changes will be reflected in your open editors. If there's a conflict, CodeEdit will prompt you to save your changes or use the updated version from disk.

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.

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.

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!

In the next version of CodeEdit... Editors reflect external file changes! If your file is modified by another program on your machine, CodeEdit will intelligently reload any open editors to show you the most up-to-date version of that file.

In the next version of CodeEdit... Invisible characters and warning characters! Invisible characters render whitespace in your editor, including tabs, spaces, newlines, and more. Warning characters warn of potentially dangerous characters like the zero-width space.

As always, these options are completely customizable. You can replace the character rendered for each invisible character, and add or remove what characters codes you are warned about. You can also disable each setting entirely!

In the next version of CodeEdit... CodeEdit remembers your cursors, undo stack, selections, and file positions when switching editors, even across sessions. Close your workspace and pick up exactly where you left off next time. #swift #programming

WelcomeWindow is a SwiftUI Scene that lets you create a welcome window similar to the one provided by Xcode and CodeEdit. For document-based apps, there's an easy-to-integrate recent document list. It comes with beautiful defaults, but can be customized to your taste. github.com/CodeEditApp/...

AboutWindow is a slick upgrade for your about window. By default it includes your app's icon and version, but provides customization options to add more, such as contributors or licenses. Each page has a smooth animation that you can hook into with SwiftUI animations. github.com/CodeEditApp/...

We've published a new release of our Swift text view package! Versions 0.11.2-0.11.3 introduces Invisible Characters, Column Selection, improves undo/redo with drag and drop, improves our attachments API, fixes an outstanding cursor bug, and more! github.com/CodeEditApp/...

In the next version of CodeEdit... Users can create files using their clipboard contents in the project navigator 🎉 Thanks to Syrux64 on GitHub for the contribution! #swift

More nitty gritty code folding details in @codeedit.app. Now that I have the data model done I'm working on making sure the ribbon drawing is perfect. Now, adjacent lines draw with a horizontal line, and collapsed folds inside hovered folds nicely clip to a matched, round, border for clarity. #swift

CodeEdit reposted

This was seriously hard to orchestrate, but I finally have code folding working while typing in @codeedit.app. The issue I was facing was remembering folded regions while editing text, and doing it efficiently. Now all thats left is a few drawing issues and a smooth animation! #swift

In the next version of CodeEdit... The source editor Find Panel gets a Find Method picker. Options include: Contains, Matches Word, Starts With, Ends With, and Regular Expression. This work wraps up in-editor find! 🔎📝

In the next version of CodeEdit... We're introducing a minimap for our editor! The minimap shows a high-level summary of the editors contents, allowing for quick navigation and better understanding of the entire file. Drag the visible area to jump quickly around your file.

Lots of fast changes happening on this package to make way for new features in CodeEdit! These types of patches are foundational for features like our upcoming minimap. Stay tuned for more!

This is a big moment for the project, and it’s only possible because of you. Your support is fueling real progress. That said, we only have a small window to make the most of this.

We’ve published new releases to our Swift text view package! Versions 0.9.0 and 0.9.1 include a drastically improved drag-and-drop experience, new APIs for editing selections, performance improvements, and an important fix for a text layout bug. github.com/CodeEditApp/...

Getting to work on a minimap for @codeedit.app! Really happy with the progress already. Internally, the minimap uses the same text layout system as our custom Swift text view. But, instead of rendering text it renders little dots! Next up is making it interactive, and more flexible.

Announcing our latest release v0.3.4!🎉 This version includes our new find-in-editor panel, text selection improvements, undo/redo fixes, drag and drop to open files, an editor overscroll setting, file navigator refinements, and many more bug fixes! github.com/CodeEditApp/...

In the next version of CodeEdit… Find in editor is working with our custom find panel. Results are highlighted while typing, and are automatically selected when moving to the editor. We’ll continue to expand on this in the future, including features like find and replace.

In the next version of CodeEdit ✨ Users will be able to drag external files into individual editors within CodeEdit to open them there.
