Hi Olivia,

thank you for your wonderful synth.

I'd like to propose few changes to the editor, obviously is just a proposal and if necessary I can change my edits or cancel the pull request.

And a fix to keydown listener:

Here a screenshot of the editor with these changes:

Hi,

I really like the highlighting of brackets and auto close brackets!

Some changes before merging this:

  • -- switch the key commands to the keymaps.js file (this is to make it easier to automate and configure key commands, as well as implement different editors down the line)
  • -- the autocomplete does not contain relevant information... it would be really nice to include if it works! for now i think we should leave it out.

There are some style things that are too heavy handed for me. It is complicated in hydra because there is a trade off between readability and blocking the visuals.:
Things that I would like to keep as is (how they were before):

  • the error log
  • get rid of the black line that appears at the beginning of each empty line
  • the cursor

I really like the line highlighting, but I think it can be really intrusive. A lot of ppl perform with hydra by making the code really small in a large window, and this would cause a line across the whole screen. I would be interested in just highlighting the line in the left hand gutter.

I think the bracket highlighting could be a more muted grey to not get so confused with the cursor.

Maybe this is a good chance to think about allowing custom theming and editor configuration, because I am sure ppl will have different preferences in different scenarios.

Hey @ojack , thank you for the feedback.

I made up changes and used the left hand gutter to highlight selected line.

If necessary I can rollback to no selected line highlight as before :)
