SCREENSHOTS:
Xi Editor
DESCRIPTION:
Xi Editor is a text editor project with its core / backend written in Rust, designed for high performance, responsive editing (fast rendering, minimal latency), clean architecture separating front-end and core, and extensibility. It was intended to be a modern replacement for editors, to support large files, efficient buffer management, plugin integration. However, its development status indicates it is discontinued (no new features currently planned) though bug fixes are accepted.
Features
- Core-backend / front-end separation: Core handles buffer, editing operations; front-ends render UI etc
- Persistent rope data structure for efficient editing even with large files
- Asynchronous operations (e.g. autosave snapshots, non-blocking operations) so user isn’t blocked by heavy operations
- Support for plugins via pipes / plugin protocol; front-end / core communicate via JSON messages
- Native UI front-ends: macOS front-end (Cocoa), GTK front-end, Windows experimental, Term UI front-end etc
- Emphasis on speed and responsive UX: operations, rendering under 16ms, minimize latency etc
Programming Language
Rust
