Monaco Editor VS BrowserFS

Fyi, if you are ever looking for a fun project you might be able to implement this. The vscode editor source is available as a library https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/

VScode uses the monaco-editor to display all editor screens in vscode including the markdown editor. A simple solution is to use the in built markdown file editor and call it a day.

visual studio is open source: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode

i remember using their monaco editor as well (https://github.com/microsoft/monaco-editor), a really powerful editor & the very same used by VS Code (i think you can even get at the AST for TypeScript, for example, in the browser if you poke around deep enough)

crazy cool stuff, and most definitely OSS!!!

So lets say the project consists of two packages Lib and App in which Lib is a library and App is the frontend app which depends on Lib. Now I want to display a monaco powered code editor in App which has has access to all types of Lib. This means that I have to somehow read the *.d.ts file of Lib as a string to set it as "extra lib" for monaco.

You’ll see a Monaco Editor-powered change editor. The content incoming from the Git repo is on the left, while the current content in Vrite is on the right. You can make changes in the editor on the right - this will ultimately become the result content. Once you’re done, click Resolve. If there are no other conflicts, you should now be able to pull the latest changes.

From googling about it seems that Azure uses monaco editor to make code in repos be colourised and what not. this appears to be the editor library for vscode, so that makes sense.

By referencing the ProseMirror docs, forwarding the editor state back and forth, and adjusting the layout, I managed to integrate Monaco Editor — the web editor extracted from VS Code — together with Prettier (for code formatting) right into the Vrite Editor (I know, that’s a lot of editors in one place 😅).

I think JupyterLite is using localStorage by default. But there are File System APIs for WASM and some external projects[0], I don't think they're yet integrated.

I started my file system with BrowserFS which allowed me to setup IndexedDb as the main writeable location. When in Firefox Private mode it switches to an in memory file system which does not persist. Using BrowserFS also meant I could open ZIP and ISO files as if they were folders. I create a JSON file on build that has the initial public folder directory structure which is used as the readable portion of the file system via plain HTTP GET requests. I've also added the ability to extract RAR files, although I don't currently have it linked to File Explorer to see it's contents before extracting. I can also make and extract ZIP/ISO via fflate.

Thanks for the interest! To do git I used https://isomorphic-git.org/, the terminal is backed by https://xtermjs.org/ and the file system that it writes to is coming from https://github.com/jvilk/BrowserFS. This is all part of my side project (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS) to build a web desktop environment.

Thanks, I'm glad to hear you liked it! I am using BrowserFS to create writeable data on IndexedDb.
