> he plugins are still very few compared to other mature editors. also, it’s not quite as configurable as Sublime
AFAIU, it doesn't have a plugin runtime, which is fairly glaring to me (but maybe not for devs these days).
This is what triggered my "is it hype" thought, as I've seen people say it does but it's in rust or something.
And I feel like many fail to realise how hard it is to build a new editor with everything we take for granted these days.
Fediverse & typst similarly.
it does have plugins, or "extensions" rather, and yes they are written in rust and compiled to webassembly. but currently there are still very few of them. although it's a growing list
