As it is pointed out in README, this repo now turned to be a "meta-repo" and actual development is done in separate repos
For the backend, please see limetext/lime-backend.
There are also three frontends currently in development: limetext/lime-qml, limetext/lime-termbox, and limetext/lime-html.
The link in the website "View our roadmap" button still link to this repo. Still 17 day without any change...but still better, for sure. I am still worried about the developpement of this project, but still better.
Carry on guys, this is a great and usefull project !
@gbersac Its not dead and as an open source project it relies on the spare time of contributors.
Great to know ! I understand that finding time to code must be difficult. Carry on !
It's not dead, just moving slowly. It'd move faster if more people helped out hint hint ;)
I really considered contributing to limetext because it is an interesting project. The problem is : go. Not that it is a bad language, it is not, but I just don't like it. Very subjective.
And I am 100% focused on rust. Sorry and good luck. I'm still interested in this project. I'll may create a rust plugin for lime ^^
I think go could be a problem since there is very limited number of developers available. With C++ e.g. most could start right away developing.
@PSeitz I doubt that there are that few go-developers. I see the problem in lime's vast dependency hell. IMHO Go programs and libraries are meant to form their own independent eco-system. Dragging in dependencies from the C/C++-world is complicating enough. In this special case it's even Qt. Qt itself is its own ecosystem with everything from basic datatypes to a UI-library. In a perfect world, Go would have a de-facto standard UI-toolkit and limetext would use that. Just my two cents.

I feel like it is an awesome project ! Sublime text is not evolving anymore and atom is too slow. We need a total open source sublime text like lime text ! But no commit since april. Is it dead ?
