Nev is a text editor focused on keyboard usage, customizability and speed which runs in the terminal and in a GUI. It also aims to provide tools for writing code out of the box, like Git integration, syntax highlighting using Treesitter, language integration using LSP and debugging using DAP.
I’m also experimenting with a programming language system where instead of writing the source code as plain text,
the abstract syntax tree (AST) is edited directly (or rather through projections, which are still trees).
This feature is not included in release builds, and has to enabled by compiling with -D:enableAst=true
(note that it doesn’t compile with the latest version, I will continue work on this at a later stage, for now the focus is on making this a good text editor for “normal” programming languages).
Nev is still relatively new, so many things are still missing or need improvement. If you want to contribute check out this.
There is a Discord server where you can ask questions as well.
