Working a lot with IES files these days. To make it easier, I created an "ies-tools" suite with CLI, @vscode extension: ies-tools.ben3d.ca

I was searching for an IDE like VSCode or Atom or Pulsar and found this. This looks cool. Not sure if most or many VSCode extensions will work with this fork.

I never liked Electron apps due to their bloat and always prefer Tauri apps.

Zed looks like a cool IDE but it is written in Rust and Rust is great for performance but for extension adoption, I can see this being an issue since more people know HTML/CSS/JS over Rust and I would image would prefer writing an extension in HTML/CSS/JS over Rust.

Therefore a good Tauri based IDE that is similar to the Electron IDEs would be interesting and perhaps will be good enough for performance, and developer friendly.

Decided to download and give @vscode a go after many years away. It now touts itself as the "The open source AI code editor" which is kinda gross... #code #vscode #programming
