24 alternatives to Ki Editor – Multicursor syntactical editor
Hi everyone, I have been developing this editor, Ki, for over a year, and have employed it substantially in all kinds of development (including Ki itself) for at least 3 months. I think it is mostly crystallized, thus I'm happy to share it with you today. Its main strength is first-class multi-cursor and structural (syntax) editing, which is a rare combination in the realm of editors (TUI or GUI alike). Hope you'll enjoy it!
Ki Editor is a text editor that combines multi-cursor editing with syntax-aware structural editing capabilities. It works as both a terminal and graphical application, allowing developers to edit code across multiple… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hey HN, I'm Andrew, one of the creators of Void. I made this open source version of Cursor where you can get all of Cursor's core features but in a fully-customizable IDE (ctrl+k, ctrl+L). We love Cursor but there are so many other features we want to build, like allowing AI to edit multiple files at once, or giving AI better understanding of your file system. Void is the open-source, fully customizable tool we've been wanting. The hard part: we're building Void as a fork of vscode. The repo has great documentation for extensions, but going deeper gets pretty involved. All of the code is…

Shuffle▲260Hi! We noticed that our users extensively use Shuffle (a visual editor for developers) in conjunction with Cursor. That's why we built the Shuffle CLI, a lightweight tool that creates a seamless bridge between Shuffle and Cursor. With this CLI, you can: * Sync your visual components from Shuffle directly into Cursor projects * Automatically generate clean, editable code from your designs * Keep your design and dev workflows tightly integrated without copy-pasting or re-exporting We built this to reduce the friction between prototyping and production. If you're using Cursor as your IDE and…

Inspired by the design and UI/UX of apps like Notion, and utility of open-source apps like StackEdit, I decided to create a minimalistic, local-only WYSIWYG Markdown editor. Some features worth highlighting: - Monaco editor and Prettier integration for code snippets - Tables (apparently the holy grail of WYSIWYG editing) - Embeds (for CodePen, CodeSandbox and YouTube, most useful for HTML or JSON exports) - Accepts Markdown paste-in, and "exports"/generates HTML, Markdown and JSON outputs - Collaboration (with real-time awareness and initial commenting system, available only when…

Kraa 1.0▲359Hi HN! Excited to share the public beta of Kraa – a web-based markdown editor. It's aiming to be distraction-free and has strong separation of the document's styling from the experience of writing it — while still alowing for rich customization. Example of a leaf with custom styles: https://kraa.io/kraa/examples/echolibrary Curious about your feedback in hopes of improving Kraa before the planned launch later this year.

I wanted a proper non-linear video editor built for the web. It always annoyed me how there are practically zero functioning web video editors. And here we are :) Kimu can: - Work with Video, Audio & Text. - Supports Transitions. - Non-Linear Video Editing with z-axis overlays. - Split/trim - Export - A cute AI agent (coming soon!) I'm in uni and I started this project out of sheer annoyance that there are zero good web video editors. It is open-source here (https://github.com/robinroy03/videoeditor). What do y'all think?
