Making a GUI Text Editor from Scratch in C

[@tahaanass3097]

i love waching people code for hours even though i don't understand anything ( maybe a little )

[@VortekzV302]

great job, we need a guide how to setup neovim like that

[@blackorts5875]

I agree!

[@cococry]

Coming up :)

[@PS2Reviewer]

No u don't, for me it was just a way to procrastinate actually learning to code. VSCode is also lightweight and much easier to set up than nvim, especially for beginners. When you're good, you'll know what you need from nvim and how to set it up. Apologies if you're already good, but that was my experience with ricing nvim. Spent more time working on it than actually coding, meanwhile VSC just works.

[@teodordjuric6323]

@@PS2Reviewer he just wants help learning to config neovim, i get what youre saying about configuring becoming an unproductive hobby but learning to make your editor your own can be a useful experience on its own :)

[@PS2Reviewer]

@@teodordjuric6323 You're right, it can be both, better to learn a little doing something fun than learn nothing, because it didn't look fun. Writing that commen I was honestly trying to convince myself not to spend another weekend setting up neovim. Maybe it'll be easier this time. :p

I'm learning C currently and this video is very interesting for me. Thank you :)

I am gonna save this for the future. great video bro! keep up the great work! 🔥

[@dalton5446]

Between this video, your video on how you made your WM, and the last video about making a calculator, I'm convinced. Subbed!

[@rvft]

1:53:04 that was about to be a canon event, hopefully you had undo tree and didn't turn into a crazy villain evil doctor who wants to burn the world down

[@danksama7368]

i have recently started learning C and this video is very intresting

[@ManvendraSK]

This is some awesome feat! Would like to watch a video on how do you configure your Neovim with all the coolness.

[@cococry]

@@ManvendraSK next video bro

[@ManvendraSK]

@@cococry Thank you. I'll wait for it.

[@abdalrhmanhamza4030]

Your content is Awesome. Kepp Going ❤❤❤

[@techleef-tn]

Great video, subscribed. I have a request: can you do a video on how you setup your cool desktop environment and your dotfiles ? that would be great. Thank you.

[@Wizatek]

I expected the end of the video to reveal that the entire video was coded in the text editor he made

[@lav-m4a138]

1:53:30 It stopped my heartbeat😮

You are the best man

[@insadeyt]

I ve been watching your videos recently and i just want to thank you so much... I am super new to programming can you please make your videos little bit beginner friendly ❤

[@MaxiveLegend]

I don't think this kind of stuff is what you should start with if you're super new to programming, might be better to start out making some simple CRUD applications to get a feel for general concepts and syntax before moving on to advanced stuff like this. If you're really new to this, you might be able to follow along with this, but you won't actually understand what you're doing

[@insadeyt]

@@MaxiveLegend bro can you please give general outline of what things I need to learn first 🙏 I am like a new born baby 😭 🍼 btw what is crud?

[@MaxiveLegend]

@@insadeyt CRUD stands for Create, Read, Update, Delete. Those are the basic actions you'd need to be able to do on some resource. There's a million applications you could apply this to, but as a beginner it might be best to look into building a todo-list application where you can add items to the list, storing and reading them from some kind of data store (like a mysql database, also a good learning experience), update them, and deleting them. There's lots of good tutorials out there on where to start as a beginner programmer that can explain this a lot better than me, so I'd advise you to look some of those up. As for me, I started out with Java and C#, which are both memory-safe languages that handle memory management for you. I view those as very good starting languages

[@GoldbergToastyBred]

Awesome video! I wonder how you learned all this 🤔

[@ElectronicFanArm]

awesome I love it

[@ng.h9315]

1:55:39 Now i can edit my own editor in my own editor😂😂😂

[@naitikmundra8511]

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED. I am maybe gonna look at doing this in Rust, and report back if I get something cool!

[@korigamik]

I hope you add mouse support next 😀

[@dalton5446]

What did you learn first: GL or X? Unrelated: I've been programming for decades, and I can't imagine being on your level.

[@solidnywonsz]

You've been programming for decades and you don't know how to code a text editor?

[@korigamik]

yoo, how do you get different fonts in the same terminal window for your editor?

[@korigamik]

Okay this is the last comment i promise. I would love to contribute to this project, I have some ideas that would be great to implement on a gl based editor (waiting for the github repo). Also, please do an explainer on undo-tree that you talk about (1:53:25 scares me so much).

Which IDE are you using?

[@klevisimeri607]

He is using neovim. I would not call it and IDE.

[@edipedipbulmaz]

what is that editor?

It's not from scratch if you already set shit up... Wasted 3 minutes of my time that i can never get back.

[@nikkehtine]

Define "from scratch"

[@nisidabay]

All the videos I saw from this guy are the same. "Look at what I've done". No code, no links to libraries. It's so interesting to follow that the people are talking and asking about his nvim configuration.
