What is Pragtical?
Pragtical is a code editor which was forked from Lite XL (also a fork of lite) written mostly in Lua with a focus on been practical rather than minimalist. The name of the editor is a mixture of the words pragmatic and practical, two words that properly define our development approach as follows:
- governed through practice or action, rather than theory, speculation or idealism
- willing to see things as they really are and deal with them sensibly
As a result we belief that new features introduced through pull requests should be evaluated taking a practical approach, without going into lenghty idealistic discussions that slowdown progress, merging code when logical.





Comments and Reviews
It is really easy to extend like its predecessor, but also has good built-in feature ready to use.
Fast and easily extensible, fun to use and hack on.
