We decided to leave out editing early in the process. Most developers already have their favorite editor and it's a lot of work to implement all features that users would expect from it.

We decided to focus on source exploration instead. Sourcetrail is made for the second screen. We implemented plugins for the most used source editors to enable easy switching. Please have a look at our documentation: https://www.sourcetrail.com/documentation/#CODEEDITORPLUGINS

Cool! Wonder what the graph exploration view would be like if you used a hyperbolic plane to embed it in haha: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_tree

Nice work; seems like you hit a nice medium between trying out something new and keeping it connected to the real world and practical. :)
