Whether you need to open large files, preview code snippets, or perform quick edits, it delivers a streamlined workflow without unnecessary overhead.
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Highlights
|
||||
- **Fast loading** even with large code files
|
||||
- **Syntax highlighting** for common programming languages (Python, C, C++, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and more)
|
||||
- **Minimal design** focused on readability and ease of use
|
||||

## Installation
|
||||
---
|
||||
Neon Vision Editor is a lightweight, modern macOS text editor focused on **speed, readability, and fast syntax highlighting**.
|
||||
It is intentionally minimal: quick edits, fast file access, no IDE bloat.
|
||||
|
||||
Clone this repository and open the project:
|
||||
> Status: **alpha / beta**
|
||||
> Platform target: **macOS 26 (Tahoe)**
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Download
|
||||
|
||||
Prebuilt binaries are available via **GitHub Releases**.
|
||||
|
||||
- Latest release: **v0.2.3-alpha** (23 Jan 2026)
|
||||
- Architecture: Apple Silicon (Intel not tested)
|
||||
- Notarization: *not yet*
|
||||
|
||||
If you don’t want to build from source, this is the recommended path.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Why this exists
|
||||
|
||||
Modern IDEs are powerful but heavy.
|
||||
Classic macOS editors are fast but stagnant.
|
||||
|
||||
Neon Vision Editor sits in between:
|
||||
- Open files instantly
|
||||
- Read code comfortably
|
||||
- Edit without friction
|
||||
- Close the app without guilt
|
||||
|
||||
No background indexing. No telemetry. No plugin sprawl.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
|
||||
- Fast loading, including large text files
|
||||
- Syntax highlighting for common languages
|
||||
(Python, C/C++, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and others)
|
||||
- Clean, minimal UI optimized for readability
|
||||
- Native macOS 26 (Tahoe) look & behavior
|
||||
- Built with Swift and AppKit

|
||||
|
||||
## Non-goals (by design)
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ No plugin system (for now)
|
||||
- ❌ No project/workspace management
|
||||
- ❌ No code intelligence (LSP, autocomplete, refactors)
|
||||
- ❌ No Electron, no cross-platform abstraction layer
|
||||
|
||||
This is **not** an IDE. That is intentional.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
- macOS 26 (Tahoe)
|
||||
- Xcode compatible with macOS 26 toolchain
|
||||
- Apple Silicon recommended
|
