e · The Editor

The editor for
the rest of us .

A fast, native code editor written in Rust — with first-class PHP/Laravel support, LSP, a built-in terminal and database panel, and an integrated AI agent panel running right beside your code.

Editing a Laravel Blade view in e — Flux UI components, Tailwind classes, tabs and breadcrumbs
S.01 — What it does

Fast and native,
built for the web stack.

Tree-sitter highlighting, LSP, fuzzy navigation, and framework-aware completion for PHP, Laravel, Blade, Vue, Svelte and Tailwind — wrapped in a GPU-accelerated UI that stays out of your way.

GPU-accelerated & native

Written from scratch in Rust with a reactive, GPU-accelerated UI. Responsive on big files, light on resources.

AI agent panel

Run Elyra, Claude Code, Codex or any CLI agent in a panel beside your code (⌘L) — context stays where you work.

LSP & tree-sitter

Diagnostics, completion, hover and go-to-definition across 12+ languages, with file-type icons in the explorer.

Laravel intelligence

Completion, hover and go-to-definition for route(), view(), config(), env(), __() and x-… Blade components, sourced from your project.

Fuzzy finder & palette

Jump to files (⌘P), run any action from the command palette (⌘⇧P), and search & replace across the workspace (⌘⇧F).

Integrated terminal

A PTY-backed terminal (⌘T) with ANSI colour, multiple tabs, rename and split — never leave the editor.

Database panel

Browse and query MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite and ClickHouse (⌘3) — connect from .env or manually, edit cells, export CSV.

Source control

Stage, commit, push/pull, switch branches, view history, stash, blame and resolve merge conflicts (⌘2).

Built-in auto-updater

Detects new GitHub releases, shows the changelog, and installs the update in place.

Agents, built in

Your coding agent,
beside your code.

Open the agent panel with ⌘L and run Elyra, Claude Code, Codex — or any CLI agent — without leaving the editor. The editor hosts; the agent reasons.

  • Any CLI agent runs in a native panel next to your files
  • Pairs perfectly with the Elyra coding agent
  • Terminal, database and source control one keystroke away
  • Free, open source, and built in Rust
