Lightweight macOS Editor
A small, focused editor for the moments when you just need to open a file, make a change, and move on.
If you ever need a basic code editor on a VM, a fresh machine, or anywhere a full IDE feels excessive, this is built for that job. It stays intentionally small and keeps the experience centered on editing files quickly, including lightweight split view when you need two files open side by side.
Open two files side by side in the same window so scripts, configs, and related edits stay in view together.
Built-in highlighting for Shell, PowerShell, and Python keeps common scripts readable without extra setup.
Autocomplete helps with functions, variables, and symbols already in your file so small edits move faster.
Search within the current file, jump between matches, and make quick replacements without leaving the editor.
Quit the app and come back later without losing your open files or unsaved work in progress.
Work with several files at once, open related files in split view, or keep separate folders open in different windows without shared state.
Adjust font, theme, indent width, and other practical defaults without digging through a complex preferences window.
See line count, change line endings and encoding, open the parent folder in Finder, launch Terminal, or copy the file path.
Open individual files or full folders, move across tabs quickly, and make one-off changes without IDE overhead.
Browse project folders from the sidebar, move through files quickly, and keep navigation close to the editor.
Open supported files directly in Code from Finder so quick edits start from the file itself, not from inside the app.
Ideal for config files, shell scripts, quick patches, and the kind of work where a full development environment is overkill.
This is not trying to replace VS Code, Xcode, or any advanced editor.
The goal is simpler than that: give you the basics you need to get a script or file edit done quickly.
