Source for editor

Hey Zach,

Thanks for all your amazing work, it's really cool!

Not really an issue so much as a question - where does the code for the editor that you see in nightcoders.net once you start a project come from? I could find the source for the landing page in the repo, but not the editor itself.

The source for the editor is https://github.com/oakes/Nightlight which nightcoders.net pulls in as a dependency

Thanks! I'm working on an experimental editor and researching various ways to handle evaluation. The concept of an embedded IDE is quite cool in that regard.

Yeah i'm still really enthusiastic about the idea. Most of my work is going towards paravim, which is kind of a successor to nightlight. It definitely makes it easier to eval code since it's in the same process.
