Comment Comment by hexa00 Theia does not only provide remote file access you also have LSP (language server protocol) for code-completion / docs ala eldoc , company) etc..Almost all of Theia's features are based in the backend.The emacs equivalent would be like having emacs in daemon mode and a tcp based emacsclient locally. (I wish that existed)Also the idea is to have something a bit more modern and appealing to the mass of javascript/web devs out there.Theia is still far from replacing emacs, but as an emacs user myself and a Theia dev I hope I can bring what I love about emacs to Theia :) parent hexa00 9 years ago
