And Eclipse Foundation maintains VSCode-compatible editor designed to be a framework for other IDEs: https://theia-ide.org/ IMO sounds like natural foundation for Cursor. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
There's also the Eclipse VScode-look-alike-reimplementation called TheiaIDE https://theia-ide.org/ It was rough a few years ago, but nowadays it's pretty nice. TI rebuilt their Code Composer Studio using Theia so it does have some larger users. It's VSCode-with-an-Eclipse-feel to it - which might or might not be your cup of tea, but it's an alternative. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
100% this. It would be one thing if the only LSPs you could build came from Microsoft, but thatโs just not true. Itโs just that developing LSPs isnโt free. Cursor, Windsurf, etc. Are building multi-billion dollar businesses off the backs of the work that the VS Code team has done. And thatโs totally fine! Whatโs not fine, is trying to have access to the whole ecosystem of first party extensions that arenโt MIT... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
Even better: Theia. It supports most vscode extensions right out of the box. https://theia-ide.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
Big corporations are not monoliths, despite them having an overall singular personality. I believe that vscode was a sincere attempt, at least in the beginning. While based on electron which was originally developed for Atom, vscode was always much more performant than atom. But when it did gain a lot of developer attention, MS's true nature took hold and gradually converted it into the walled garden we see today.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
I made a nice way to use all your coding harnesses and persist them entirely in the TUI. I love Cursor and Claude Code, but I like using many of them and often use them in combination with tmux locally and via SSH, so I made this for myself really. Hoping other people find it useful or cool. It's mostly for use inside of Ghostty (https://ghostty.org/) so image rendering and everything works nicely. Would love some... - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago
The downside of teaching a designer to use the terminal is that she will want hers to look like yours. Tanya saw my Ghostty theme and my catppuccin Starship theme over a screen share and decided she wanted both. Her Claude Code statusline came next. That's an entire other post. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
I built ghostty-automator, a purpose-built IPC layer for Ghostty that exposes the terminal's actual state to external processes. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
It works on any terminal that supports the Kitty graphics protocol โ Ghostty and Kitty are the two main ones. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
In late 2024, Ghostty launched and open-sourced libghostty โ a production-grade terminal rendering engine built on Metal. Suddenly, I didn't need to write a GPU renderer from scratch. The hardest part of building a terminal was solved. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
