Thank you, and you're absolutely correct. I think a side-by-side video comparison would work even better, because it's not immediately clear how much time is spent moving commas around, playing with whitespace or hunting parenthesis.
That said, I'm not trying to convert people just yet. It still needs polishing and support for a few more languages (right now it only does Lua, Python and basic Lisp, which is not very exciting).
- RootDynasty 12y agoIs your editor open source? It looks really interesting.
- BoppreH 12y agoI haven't opened it yet for two reasons: 1) Premature open-sourcing complicates commercial projects, and a man gotta eat. 2) Because it would be a first, any flaws in the implementation will be assigned to the concept of structured editing itself, hurting the development of alternative implementations. Even if my vision of it fails, I want other people to have a shot without fighting incorrectly formed opinions. In the end, it's the ideas and not the source that are important. It's like developing for VR now, or mobile a few years ago. The space of possible interfaces is so big that most of the effort goes into combing it.
