In my 20 years living inside Emacs, the running joke has always been that it's a great operating system lacking only a good text editor. With Neomacs bringing a GPU-accelerated display engine, and WebKit to the table... it looks like our operating system finally got a modern compositor. On top of that multithreading! (so some cache ops won't pause the editor!)
Jokes aside, this is exactly the kind of mad-science evolution Emacs needs, rather than being hard-blocked by 1980s terminal-era C code.
I'm curious how much of this project is done by AI?
PS: kudos for doing it, I will definitely support it!
