    A vi-like editor based on Plan 9's structural regular expressions (by martanne)

  • kakoune

    mawww's experiment for a better code editor

  • these days I'm using http://kakoune.org/

  • Puts Debuggerer

    Ruby library for improved puts debugging, automatically displaying bonus useful information such as source line number and source code.

  • All in all, GNU nano, notepadqq, notepad2-mod, notepad3, and notepad++ are very user-friendly. For a more programmer's IDE experience, I'd recommend GeanyIDE, GNU make, GNU patch, and a debugger... xi, xi-gtk, and gxi are also interesting text editors as are many new such projects over at http://github.com , http://gitlab.org , self-hosted gitea instances, etc.

  • nextvi

    Next version of neatvi (a small vi/ex editor) for editing bidirectional UTF-8 text

  • You can have a look at neatvi. I don't use it directly, but this fork. Sometimes I have the impression that I need some missing features, but I'm really happy with it. For example I was forced to create a snippet system and I prefer it over the existing ones.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
