I would consider a new name.<p>Ace/ACE is maybe the most overused name or acronym out there. There are over a dozen entries in the Wikipedia disambiguation page in the computing subsection alone. And that doesn't count other domains and non-public projects.<p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ace_(disambiguation)" rel="nofollow">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ace_(disambiguation)</a>
I recently tried to embed Monaco but wound up with Ace instead due to issues using Monaco via requirejs. Was pleasantly surprised that Ace had all of the features we needed.
I tried to type in the snippet embedded in that page with Firefox Android. The cursor is about where I touched the screen but characters appear at the end of the line. The two locations move in sync when I use the arrow keys on my mobile keyboard.<p>That doesn't happen with the Etherpad editor. The demo at <a href="http://etherpad.org/" rel="nofollow">http://etherpad.org/</a> works well.
Are there any good opensource WYSIWYG/drag and drop website builders? I've always been curious if folks like leadpages, wix, etc build their own from scratch or start with something off the shelf.
Ace is probably the fastest code editor, especially for large files. Features are far from monaco but you have to load only 200kb for ace vs 2.5mb for monaco
I am pretty much fan of Ace editor. It has worked perfectly over the years and have no nearby competitor when I compared back in 2015.<p>This was a project I made using ACE, "an online IDE (code, compile and run)" for competitive programmers: <a href="https://www.codechef.com/ide" rel="nofollow">https://www.codechef.com/ide</a>
Has the same problem like other web code editors. It does something weird with text selection and mouse click handling, so copy pasting using middle click doesn't work (in or out of the editor).
What's the use-case for an editor embedded in a webpage? It doesn't seem to be able to live-edit the webpage code - so I guess I don't really get it..<p>It'd be nice is someone made a general text editor that was also embeddedable and could also live edit itself (or the program it's running in). The closest I've seen is Nightlight
<a href="https://sekao.net/nightlight/" rel="nofollow">https://sekao.net/nightlight/</a><p>But it's not really "general purpose" like Emacs w/ Elisp and it's pretty Clojure specific
Can't you embed a REPL?
Seems like REPL.it will be the de-facto standard for most cases in the near future? Maybe it's too heavy for some applications? Why would you use anything other than REPL?
