  • xi-editor

    A modern editor with a backend written in Rust.

  • A backend server for a text editor seems like a really great idea. For example, I'm trying to make an API client and even having an embedded JSON editor would be a lot easier with something like xi. Now that the xi GitHub repo is no longer maintained are there any projects trying a similar approach?

  • lapce

    Lightning-fast and Powerful Code Editor written in Rust

  • I recently found out about https://github.com/lapce/lapce . I myself never tried it but its a actively developed one.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

    A post-modern modal text editor.

  • Not sure if this is what you want, but helix is quite cool. https://github.com/helix-editor/helix

  • druid

    A data-first Rust-native UI design toolkit. (by linebender)

  • The project with nearly 50 commits this year, who's last commit was a few hours ago is dead?: https://github.com/linebender/druid
