CodeMirror is a versatile text editor implemented in JavaScript for
|
|
the browser. It is specialized for editing code, and comes with over
|
|
100 language modes and various addons that implement more advanced
|
|
editing functionality. Every language comes with fully-featured code
|
|
and syntax highlighting to help with reading and editing complex code.
|
|
|
|
A rich programming API and a CSS theming system are available for
|
|
customizing CodeMirror to fit your application, and extending it with
|
|
new functionality.
|
|

|

The CodeMirror community aims to be welcoming to everybody. We use the

|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
Either get the [zip file](https://codemirror.net/codemirror.zip) with
|
|
the latest version, or make sure you have [Node](https://nodejs.org/)
|
|
installed and run:
|
|
|
|
npm install codemirror
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: This is the source repository for the library, and not the
|
|
distribution channel. Cloning it is not the recommended way to install
|
|
the library, and will in fact not work unless you also run the build
|
|
step.
|
|
|
|
### Quickstart
|
|
|
|
To build the project, make sure you have Node.js installed (at least version 6)
|
|
and then `npm install`. To run, just open `index.html` in your
|
|
browser (you don't need to run a webserver). Run the tests with `npm test`.
