Oride
What Oride is
Oride is a terminal-based code editor and mini-IDE for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Its editing tools include Vim-style modal controls, tabs, splits, and multi-cursor editing, alongside a project tree, search and replace, and a collapsible interactive terminal. Git features show status and sync details, including ahead/behind status and pull and push. The project lists syntax support for languages including Rust, C, Bash, Markdown, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Lua, and Ruby; configured local language servers can provide autocomplete, hover information, and go to definition. A terminal Markdown preview handles tables, code fences, and graphics protocols on supported terminals. Oride also includes a declarative task runner configured with tasks.toml and environment diagnostics through :health. The repository identifies it as MIT licensed and labels its current status v0.2.0. Lua plugin support, large-file streaming, code actions, and crash recovery are future roadmap items. Installation instructions cover all three listed desktop platforms.
