VapourNvim VS Atom

OP and others: vim / neovim can be actual IDEs, with debuggers, autocomplete, filesystem selects, etc. There's even distros of neovim out there, like https://github.com/LunarVim/LunarVim & https://github.com/NvChad/NvChad & https://github.com/VapourNvim/VapourNvim (for people who don't want to fiddle with config or want starting points)

Havent tried it, but if you just want to test it out, a neovim distro like lunarvim or vapourvim might get you up and running with it quicker.

When you are talking about being as close as possible to an actual IDE, you should have a look at VapourNvim.

You can have a look at projects like nvchad, lunarvim or vapour nvim. However, those are just examples. You can open this link and use exactly what you want and how you want.

The main repository Wiki mentions the plugin nvim-tree.lua as its file explorer.

You can find it here

For JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, Visual Studio Code is the best solution because it already runs on the Electron framework. So, try VSCode. Don't worry; your device won't be harmed. If its performance was unbearable, you can always put it aside. You can also try Atom. It is outdated, but it could be answer to your need.

you can still get atom from it github page: https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.60.0

I'm surprised that nobody here mentioned Atom [1]. IIUC, Atom was designed to be hackable like Emacs.

A successor to Atom is Pulsar [2].

atom (RIP buddy! Free) Atom is a hackable text editor for the 21st century, built on Electron, and based on everything we love about our favourite editors. We designed it to be deeply customizable, but still approachable using the default configuration

Hey everyone, I'm developing an open source text editor called Valence. I'm just getting started with its development and the next and main thing I need to implement is the editor itself. Now I know there are many different code editors like CodeMirror, Ace.js and Monaco but I want to start from scratch and build something like Atom had done. Currently I created a contenteditable div and also added a custom cursor. BTW I'm using React, TailwindCSS and TypeScript. Here is the component

These versions of Atom will stop working on February 2 [2023]. To keep using Atom, users will need to download a previous Atom version.

For Mac users - mv ~/.atom ~/atom_bak rm -fr /Applications/Atom.app download https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.60.0 Drag download to Applications folder - to install

And it doesn't match because https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/download/v1.63.1/atom-amd64.deb returns a 404 not found error, so of course it doesn't match.
