lite

Have you looked into lite (https://github.com/rxi/lite)? It's quite minimal, but easily extensible and is very lightweight.

I like the single lapce.exe and loads reasonably fast. But this is in a pre pre-alpha stage, so many bugs it's far too early for public feedback. It loads reasonably fast except chrome stats in top left then jerks towards the center. The start page says to bring up the command palette which I was unable to navigate via keyboard. The open file dialog takes an eternity to load the first time, the path is in a text box that's not editable. Focusing a text file gives an Insert cursor which is in text mode, there's a noticable slow delay before writing the first character, text selection is non existent so lacks basic text editing features. There is a built-in terminal however there's only a single tab. The only thing that gives it potential is that the folder/file browsing is super quick even with a node_modules folder so it might be built on

Lately I've been studying lite editor which is mostly Lua code. It's quite easy to read the code and follow along. Before that I wrote my own editor which kind of works, but it mostly made me appreciate the lite's design. https://github.com/rxi/lite https://rxi.github.io/lite_an_implementation_overview.html https://rxi.github.io/a_simple_undo_system.html
