> Why? Genuine curiosity, what's the angle for a market for sublime/zed alternatives? What are they lacking? In my opinion, Sublime’s biggest gap is that it’s not open-source, and there aren’t many (if any) open-source alternatives that match its feature set, performance, and unique user experience, Sublime just feels especially nice. Zed comes closest, and I think it’s fantastic, but it’s VC-backed, so their focus on profitability will likely shape the user experience over time (as some users are already noticing). Every editor has its pros and cons, and preferences vary, but there’s always room for innovation. Even subtle differences can add up to a significantly better user experience. With ecode, I’m aiming to deliver a polished, enjoyable experience while subtly innovating on common editor features. That said, ecode is opinionated in some ways, so it won’t suit everyone, though it’s highly customizable and configurable. > And congrats on your project, looks interesting. Thanks! =)
