Re:Embrace the Chaos: How to Write a Code Editor in 4 Months by francois_h on Tuesday January 31, 2023 @02:19AM (#34592276)
This reminds me of the time I hacked together an editor in assembly. I’m all for writing “just another xyz”, however after 2 decades of development I’m tired of the infinite amount of todo apps/editors/etc. on the web. I am conflicted though. On the one hand reimplementing something existing is a great way to learn coding, sdk’s, api’s, etc. On the other hand I feel it’s limiting imaginations and I would love to see something new and unique. How many “better mouse traps” do we need.
