Ink: The Editor That Does More.

After looking into code, it appears you use Prism-live, is that right? (I've never heard of such a thing)

It is missing 2 key features in my opinion.

Line numbering
Automatic bracket closing, for example typing <html> will automatically turn in into <html> *MOVE DOWN LINE* <html>

I do really like it though, did you make the engine that interprets the html yourself?

This isn't supposed to be an IDE but the 2 things you said seem pretty doable. There is also already code for auto closung brackets so the tag closing shouldn't be hard

I sound like i'm speaking for skymover, sorry

Prism Live is what I used for syntax highlighting. All of the imports at the bottom of the HTML file are the imports for syntax highlighting.

I think Prism-Live had stuff for that as well. So we'll see what I can do.
And no, I didn't write my own engine. Basically, when you make a change to your tab, the code is loaded into an Iframe , which has the browser render the tab as HTML.

It might be hard, or it might take a couple of minuets, it just depend on how good the documentation is.

Lines and a few other features coming soon in the next version of the Ink Desktop application

The lines feature isn't perfect. It breaks when ever you change tabs, I'll try to fix that up some point.

The desktop app specific features will be a menu bar toggle-able through key-presses. And the close, minimize, and maximize buttons will be moved to within the app instead of the normal OS way.

Cool! How do you get the window buttons inside of the app?

I don't exactly know, I have to read the source of a Ninetails PR to find out.

Why make the tabs on top when it looks better to the side? 3 columns sounds good.

I just found this, and it's great! One small problem, though.
It doesn't have file saving/loading. That's a deal-breaker for me.

Maybe have a fluid menu bar on the top, tabs on and tab buttons on the side. Then on the menu bar have all the functions like saving and loading.

I can add this v4.0 which I'm currently working on.

Why?

“Why”
Because everyone understands what semver is!
<major> - <minor> - <patch>
It’s pretty simple and everyone uses it without knowing it! You can read the summary part of the semver docs at https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html and if you try to release a version of a repository you will see GitHub barging in summarising what semver is! You should of already been using semver yesterday.

What would be great is file support using the file API that Chrome has or something.
