CodeAstra ~ Modern Code Editor
CodeAstra is a modern, extensible, and lightweight code editor built using C++ and Qt6, designed to offer a fast, customizable, and feature-rich development experience. Inspired by NeoVim and VSCode, it will provide efficient file navigation, syntax highlighting, and a powerful plugin system, making it an ideal choice for developers who need speed, flexibility, and control. With a focus on performance and usability, the editor will support split views, an integrated terminal, customizable key bindings, and seamless Git integration, catering to both beginners and power users.
This project was born from my desire to help students at my university. As the Open Source Coordinator for the Computer Alliance of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (CAHSI), I created this project to help club members develop their software engineering skills and improve their collaboration abilities. Additionally, this project is giving me the opportunity to lead a team of programmers while building something meaningful to me.
