I use my own text editor too. Nobody else seems to get value from it. I’m still surprised by the value we get from home grown solutions.

- willrshansen 7mo agoDidn't even link it. :(
- mbrezu 7mo agoI guess the "link" is the implicit suggestion to write your own :-)
- altilunium 7mo agoI use my own text editor too. Sometimes I get surprise questions from my friends whenever they see my screen. “What’s that?” “That’s my own text editor!”
- hnlmorg 7mo agoI’m currently writing my own text editor (it’s basically a markdown equivalent of Jupyter notebooks). I’ve also written my own terminal emulator and my own shell. The shell does actually see other contributors and users these days too.
- lenkite 7mo agoYou can perform a legitimate muscle-flex when saying that too.
- fjfaase 7mo agoI use my own editor too. I modified an existing editor to my own needs. But I do use VSC as well for multi file projects. My editor can load images as well and has a scripting language to manipulate images. I primarily use it to edit my website, which is a static website in bare HTML. It also has some 'browser' functions in the sense that F5 opens a link including jumping to an anker if there is one in the link. It does have colour coding for HTML that also checks for matching tags.
- marckerbiquet 7mo agoI use my own text editor too, written using my own programming language. Fortunately Operating Systems suit my needs and I won't have to write my own OS ;-)
