CSV Editor
The CSV Editor plugin for JetBrains IDEs introduces CSV (Comma-Separated Values) as a recognized language, providing syntax definition, structured language elements, and associated file types (.csv/.tsv/.psv). This enables default editor features like syntax validation, highlighting, and inspections for CSV-like files. It supports customizable text and table editors, flexible table editing, syntax validation, customizable syntax highlighting and formatting, quick-fix inspections, and intentions such as quoting/unquoting and shifting columns. It accommodates various value separators, and tab, with support for custom separators and line comments. The table editor allows adding or removing rows and columns via context menus and supports key bindings for efficient navigation and manipulation.

Edabit
When learning to code, most people get stuck on the "bridge" between memorizing syntax and understanding the logic that makes it all work. We believe the most effective way to learn a programming language is to break the process into three phases:
1. Memorize syntax
2. Solve problems
3. Make stuff
Most beginners jump from memorizing syntax directly into making stuff (or trying) without fully understanding how syntax is used to solve problems. In other words, they haven't learned how to think like a programmer, yet they're trying to solve problems like a programmer.
Edabit was created to bridge this gap, while also making the process fun and addictive.

Markdown
Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML). Thus, “Markdown” is two things: (1) a plain text formatting syntax; and (2) a software tool, written in Perl, that converts the plain text formatting to HTML. See the Syntax page for details pertaining to Markdown’s formatting syntax. You can try it out, right now, using the online Dingus. The overriding design goal for Markdown’s formatting syntax is to make it as readable as possible. The idea is that a Markdown-formatted document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking like it’s been marked up with tags or formatting instructions. While Markdown’s syntax has been influenced by several existing text-to-HTML filters, the single biggest source of inspiration for Markdown’s syntax is the format of plain text email.
