This PR is a large work in progress to discern information about the future of modularizing the editor.
This is the largest change to fizzy since rewriting in DVUI.
As of now, the proof of concept already works, with pending edits to DVUI to add a proxy backend, allowing us to compile individual libraries (plugins) which can be runtime loadable.
Currently, the app is now split into the following:
The editor itself is now often referred to as a shell, as it just reads plugins and renders their contributions to the correct regions.
- Handles rendering tabs and splits
- Basically all the functionality of fizzy originally, but contained to a plugin
- Support image loading and editing, adding supported docs to tabs/splits
- Basic text editing and syntax highlighting
The strategy here is to essentially statically link ALL builtin plugins for the web build. For the native build, we vendor a
pluginsfolder containing the dylibs the editor will read at runtime. We also look for plugins at the config location, so hopefully we can support 3rd party plugins sooner rather than later.Goals
