lintplus

Former contributor and user of Lite XL here. It's an awesome little editor. I quit using it though because it seemed like the future direction of the project wasn't very clear, and from a practical standpoint VS Code simply has a better developer experience, but I had great fun hacking around it nevertheless. One of my favorite things about rxi/lite and Lite XL is just how easy it is to write plugins. Simply create a new .lua file in the plugins directory and monkey-patch whatever you need. And while it might seem like monkey-patching isn't the most clean solution, that's not exactly true — the source code of the editor doesn't need to be cluttered with explicit hooks, and plugins interoperate with each other very well, because one plugin doesn't know about the others' existence. From its standpoint it just modifies the vanilla editor. Th

I desperately want this. I find text editors w/ basic linting to be too limited but full IDE's like Idea or even VSCode too heavy for some devices. Something in between :(. I've given up laptop development and am forced to work with my desktop until I can afford a better laptop because Idea/VSCode runs so slowly. FWIW, I use lite (https://github.com/rxi/lite) if I need a very lightweight text editor that has rust linting (https://github.com/liquidev/lintplus) and Idea if I'm at my desktop.
