A lightweight code editor with Vim mode, Git integration, and more

> HOW DOES ATHAS COMPARE TO OTHER EDITORS?

> Athas is an opinionated but highly customizable code editor, aiming to be lighter on resources

From Github:

> built with React, TypeScript, and Tauri

With all due honesty, this is not lightweight at all compared to other editors.

bdamm•2mo ago
You got further than I did. Visiting the site with Safari 16.6 results in "406 Your browser is not supported. Please upgrade your browser to continue."

Not what I'd expect from an informative page about a lightweight editor.

brianjlogan•2mo ago
Why are there so many people making code editors?

It seems like we've hit a veritable Cambrian explosion of editors and I don't understand what market signals are being picked up where people find the editors insufficient.

brazukadev•2mo ago
Software is changing, everything is up for grabs. Lots of people are making Notion clones, slack clones, browsers, IDEs.
apatheticonion•2mo ago
> slack clones

As an anecdote - I really want to see consolidation here. All my chat services under one parent application. WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, Messenger.

I really don't care about the vendor for chat services, just exhausted of installing multiple clients and many of the clients being pretty garbage.

I would also like to say the same for many services. Online banking is top of mind for me right now as I have several bank accounts chasing competitive savings rates.

mrgoldenbrown•2mo ago
I'm pretty sure you don't want Teams to be the winner of consolidation. Unfortunately it's for the advantage of being included for free for ever big company using M365. We are fighting a losing battle to keep Slack.
plastic-enjoyer•2mo ago
> All my chat services under one parent application. WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, Messenger.

There was a time where one application for multiple chat services was a thing, e.g. Pidgin, Trillian or Miranda. With thw death of ICQ, AIM or MSN this is pretty much history.

chiffaa•2mo ago
A funny workaround I employed is running Beeper. It's a Matrix client that also provides chat mirroring for other platforms. The sync is slightly jank but it works for what I want to achieve

The mirroring stuff is FOSS and I think so is the client, the financial model being that you're limited to a fairly low amount of services proxies at once without a paid plan

kgwxd•2mo ago
LSP for sure. I was itching to try my hand at it when they first got big, but never got around to it.
WD-42•2mo ago
Do you consider forking VSCode making a code editor? I wouldn't. Not that this is one of those, but most "new" editors seem to be.
ethmarks•2mo ago
Does it really make sense to describe Athas as an editor with "agentic AI editing" if, by their own admission in the roadmap, they haven't even begun implementing it? Seems like they should be using the future tense or listing it as a planned feature.
vivzkestrel•2mo ago
When I see posts like this, I cant help but ask. How do you even build a code editor? What kinda of system design or OOP does it require. I couldnt find articles on HN searching for it so if anyone is reading, I super appreciate if you can share some links where talk about the methodology and thought process that goes into how to make a code editor from scratch
cfiggers•2mo ago
One great way to start learning is to code your own! Here's a step-by-step guide to writing a TUI text editor in ~1000 lines of code (and it's super easy to embellish as you go): https://viewsourcecode.org/snaptoken/kilo/
mudkipdev•2mo ago
For internals a lot of text editors use ropes as the core data structure, which makes text buffers fast.
