Another IDE born - Nightcode

It says support libgdx, android, web, and Clojure :point: I hope this becomes a lightweight IDE and not bloated.

I will test it! As long as it haves auto complete feature and fast compile, its ok! but. idk about the interface :stuck_out_tongue:

I quite like the look of the interface. Also you could check out RText (http://fifesoft.com/rtext/). That’s the parent project of the editor in Nightcode, and does support autocomplete (limited - doesn’t handle method chaining). I’m not sure Nightcode is pulling in the autocomplete library - haven’t tried it and trying to make limited sense of the Clojure project system.

Has a built in libGDX template too. My only question is to what extent they will focus on Java vs. Clojure (it seems more Clojure centric). I know they are both JVM languages, but given that one is statically typed and the other dynamically typed (not to mention the completely different syntactical structures) I would guess that they would have different priorities from a features point of view.

Autocomplete is a must. Did you know that I only use Eclipse for libgdx, while even on MVC project I use ST2?

Feature to expected:

  • Lighter, fast performance
  • Autocomplete
  • Less unnecessary built-in plugin.
