About

Kakoune is a highly efficient, modal text editor that focuses on real-time feedback and powerful, intuitive multi-selection capabilities. Inspired by Vim but offering its own distinct approach to modal editing, Kakoune prioritizes a selection-based workflow that makes text manipulation feel natural and fluid. Instead of commands operating on cursors, commands operate on selections, allowing users to edit and navigate with precision and speed. Kakoune features robust multi-caret editing, context-aware autocompletion, and extensive language support, with performance optimized for working with large files and complex codebases. Designed to be scriptable and extendable with shell commands, Kakoune integrates smoothly with UNIX tools, giving users flexibility in customization. Known for its responsiveness and adaptability, Kakoune is ideal for developers who prefer a keyboard-driven interface and appreciate real-time, immediate feedback in their editing workflow.

About

Koi Editor is a fast, minimal, scriptable code and text editor for macOS, designed around low typing latency, large-file performance, and local workflows. Koi provides multi-cursor editing, multiple synchronized views of the same document, project-wide search, file and buffer navigation, syntax highlighting, code completion, configurable themes and keybindings, and extensive text-editing commands. The editor is designed to remain responsive with large source files, logs, and structured text, and has been tested with files containing tens of millions of lines while retaining syntax highlighting and core editing functionality. Optional AI features support local models through Ollama for code completion and inline assistance. Koi can operate entirely offline, requires no account, and includes no telemetry. Koi is built specifically for Apple Silicon Macs and combines a custom editing engine with native macOS integration.
