Merging with OTP?

Open sebastiw opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

EDTS is a mature project and I think it would benefit if it was merged with Erlang/OTP.

It would be getting out to more people, so the user base would grow, and because it would be released together with the Erlang mode it would always be up to date with the current Erlang/OTP release.

What do you think of this idea? Maybe @dgud could help us?

I don't think I really have an opinion either way about your suggestion but it doesn't really strike me as something that should be part of the default distribution.

Not part of the default distribution, just under the github:erlang umberella. All OTP applications are going to be separate repos anyway, and I think the Tools/erlang-mode will be one of the first going separate. If you want I could help maintain it.

Emacs does have some great tools with erlang, like fenollp/erlang-formatter. The tools do need to be maintained and updated.

Erlang/OTP team is currently developing it's own IDE: https://github.com/erlang/erlide_kernel For now it is only an Eclipse plugin, but there is also a language server being developed, and this might be something worth looking into: https://github.com/erlang/sourcer
