Articles and deep-dives about Editora.https://editora-project.dev/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-15-0/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-15-0/A print path whose failure the on-screen preview structurally clips away, an SVG that renders everywhere except in an actual installation, and a menu that checked for a Git repository once, too early, and never checked again. Four bugs that each worked fine on the path I happened to take.Sun, 30 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-14-0/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-14-0/Typing got slower the longer you typed, and nothing pointed at why. Chasing it turned up a measurement that allocated a timer nobody stopped, a probe that moved the thing it was probing, and four tests that could only ever pass. Plus a preview feature that throws, and a window that never appears.Sat, 29 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-13-0/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-13-0/Every picker in the editor filtered on a boolean. Replacing it with a real score involved dynamic programming, a Turkish dotted capital I, and an optimization that reintroduced the bug it was written to avoid. Also, a symbol scanner that under-reports on purpose.Wed, 26 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-12-0/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-12-0/Letting a tool window maximize, re-dock, share a side and float looks like one layout feature. It took six separate encounters with what a SplitPane, an unmanaged node, a drag gesture, a fresh Scene, and the order you restore things in will each do instead. Also, a pom preview that says what it doesn't know.Sun, 16 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-10-0/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-10-0/Giving an editor a look of its own meant naming what each colour means, then discovering that the toolkit you build on has no last-child selector, shrinks every label in a row by an equal share, and silently refuses one flavour of SVG arc. Also, the third time a language server shipped a feature switched off.Mon, 03 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-9-10/https://editora-project.dev/blog/editora-0-9-10/Reading from a language server is easy. Acting on what it says means editing your code, and that is where the bugs were: an ordering rule in the spec, a capability nobody declared, a feature the server ships switched off, and an off-by-one that made a whole feature look like it had nothing to say.Sun, 26 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://editora-project.dev/blog/rebuilding-the-editora-website/https://editora-project.dev/blog/rebuilding-the-editora-website/The old home page described a keyboard-driven editor without ever showing one.
