A Tool/Toy for Non-Beginners
by Lu Wang
- Works but unstable, only tested on Firefox/Chrome + Ubuntu
- Faster on Chrome than Firefox
- Some features work better on Firefox
vim.js is built with the small feature set (--with-features=small), with also a few from the normal set.
Run :version to check.
--with-features=normal is too large and too slow for online usage.
- Prepare the dependencies:
- emscripten
- node.js
- streamline.js
- closure compiler
- GCC & cproto (sometimes you need to run
make proto)
- Get yourself familiar with everything above and also:
- source code of vim
- JavaScript, and also HTML/CSS
- Setup paths in
build.sh - Uncomment the last few lines in
build.sh - Run
build.sh
Patches are welcome and wanted for
- Wrapping async functions — learn more
- Multi-browser/platform support
- Stability improvements
- UI improvements
- Other stuffs in
TODO
If you want to work on other features to be merged, please file an issue and discuss with me first.
