So in the spirit of this community and not just to focus on the Reddit… issues… I thought it might be nice to get a topical conversation going in here.

Basically, what open source projects are you currently working on or are you heavily involved with?

I think it would be nice to see what projects people have on the go, get some publicity out there and otherwise talk about stuff that we should be discussing here.

    Honestly not working on it at the moment but been meaning to for a long time: lapce.dev I’m tired of every application being another Elextron wrapper with outdated versions having issues. VSCodium for me literally takes hundreds of MBs for just a small like ~20 files project and the native Wayland support is still lacking big time. It’s time we go back to native applications!

      I do like Lapce and I’m fairly active on the Discord, I was considering using it as my Atom replacement intially before I joined the Pulsar team. Excited to see what Floem ends up bringing to it, lots of UI stuff put on hold because it was just too hard in Druid.

        Definitely, it’s already a great code editor, but it still needs some work to be a good ~IDE replacement. But it’s looking great and the progress is impressively fast.

      I started trying out lapce today and it is awesome. I managed to get the css and html language servers set up and connected which seem to work well. I was wondering how I would go about setting up automatic insertion of corresponding closing tags (I don’t know what is the official name of this feature) in lapce like in code?

        Honestly, I don’t know if that is a problem yet. It’s still very much WIP, but someone might be willing to work on an extension for closing tags if you open an issue! :)

          I’ll definitely open an issue. I think my challenge is that I don’t know if something is a missing feature/bug or something I haven’t figured out because I couldn’t find the relevant docs. So I’m a bit hesitant to open an issue and possibly waste devs time.

            That’s very noble of you, but as you will see in their repo they are still in pretty early stages of development and don’t have a lot of advanced features yet, so don’t worry about opening issues about such features. I think it helps them to prioritize!

              I hadn’t thought about it that way :) I’m definitely opening few issues on basic functionality that wasn’t properly working. Your comment was really helpful. Thank you
