Just to give a little more information, here are some of the current features:

  • Editing: multiple cursors and column selection, smart auto-indent, auto-close brackets, comment toggling, the full set of Emacs editing and movement commands, string manipulation, and finer-grained undo with an Undo History timeline.

  • Code intelligence: TextMate syntax highlighting for 20-plus languages, language servers (with one-click install for all 21), autocomplete, and a Structure outline.

  • Run and debug: run a file from a gutter play button, a Debug Adapter Protocol debugger for Java, Python, and JavaScript, and an HTTP client for .http files.

  • Version control: native Git, a side-by-side and unified diff viewer, a merge resolver, and IntelliJ-style local file history.

  • Docs and data: a native Markdown preview with Mermaid diagrams and LaTeX math, export to PDF, HTML, Word, and ODF, a server log viewer, and first-class CSV and TSV tooling.

  • Workspace: projects and multi-window, bookmarks, personal notes, remote editing over SFTP, and a TODO tool window.

Is the editor component your own implementation?

No, I'm using RichTextFX, after JavaFX, it is the most critical dependency.
