About:
Ox is a terminal-based text editor written in Rust, designed to be fast, lightweight, and efficient. It provides a modern editing experience with features like syntax highlighting and multiple cursors, making it a strong alternative to heavier editors for developers working in command-line environments.
|
Key Features:
- Fast performance due to Rust implementation
- Syntax highlighting for multiple languages
- Multiple cursors for efficient editing
- Sixel image support
- Configurable via Lua
|
Use Cases:
- Quickly editing code or configuration files on remote servers
- Daily development workflow in the terminal
- Writing documentation or notes
|
Alternatives:
-
Helix
– Helix is another Rust-based modal editor, but uses a different selection-first approach
-
Neovim
– Neovim is highly extensible with a massive plugin ecosystem, while Ox aims for a simpler, out-of-the-box experience
-
VSCode
– VSCode is a full-featured GUI IDE, whereas Ox is a lightweight CLI tool
