Performant plain text editor for iOS with syntax highlighting, line numbers, invisible characters and much more. Runestone uses GitHub's Tree-sitter to parse code to a syntax tree which is used for features that require an understanding of the code in the editor, for example syntax highlighting. Highlight ranges in the text view. Search the text using regular expressions. Automatically detects if a file is using spaces or tabs for indentation. Specify line endings (CR, LF, CRLF) to use when inserting a line break. Automatically detect line endings in a text. When judging the performance of Runestone, it is key to build your app in the release configuration. The optimizations applied by the compiler when using the release configuration becomes very apparent when opening large documents. The project should mostly work with Catalyst on the Mac, however, it isn't fully tested and the implementation isn't considered done. The focus is currently on the iPhone and iPad.
