No, the point is to select one or more existing text editors to add to Windows:
"The goal would be to install the selected editor(s) by default such that their commands work out-of-the-box. Example editors include but are not limited to:
• Edit
• Pico
• Nano
• Vim
• Emacs
• etc.
Installing one or more of these editors by default will offer immediate CLI text editor capabilities on all Windows machines, preventing the need for additional installs or workarounds when operating on local machines, remote connections, or Windows containers."
Microsoft is not trying to create a new text editor.
If anyone wants to write their own new advanced text editor or whatever, they can, but that is not what the GitHub issue is about.
