What other editors have been built with emacs?

• kakoune.el

  10 147 0.0 Emacs Lisp

  A very simple simulation of the kakoune editor inside of emacs.

• things.el

  4 51 2.6 Emacs Lisp

  Extensions to thingatpt.el

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  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.

  

• qmk_firmware

  1,587 17,033 10.0 C

  Open-source keyboard firmware for Atmel AVR and Arm USB families

  

They also have a more expensive model which you can program with QMK firmware.

• kmonad

  199 3,512 7.6 Haskell

  An advanced keyboard manager

  

It wasn't something I thought about beforehand, but there is always Kmonad or other frameworks for remapping keys in software. The only limitation would be that duplicate modifier keys on the same side of the keyboard share the same scancodes. I.e. the middle Ctrl and the little Ctrl at the bottom-left corner each send the same scancode for "LeftCtrl", but the little Ctrl key on the right side sends "RightCtrl", so it would be possible to remap that one without affecting the others. (Supposedly you can program this model through a Windows app, but I don't know how much that can do or if it the settings would persist after plugging back into my Linux box.)

• key-chord

  12 102 4.0 Emacs Lisp

  Map pairs of simultaneously pressed keys to commands

  

For tinkering and adding your own tweaks, key-chord and general.el are both very useful.

• general.el

  36 959 4.4 Emacs Lisp

  More convenient key definitions in emacs

For tinkering and adding your own tweaks, key-chord and general.el are both very useful.
