Ace
Embeddable code editor written in JavaScript for web pages and JavaScript applications.
Ace is an embeddable code editor written in JavaScript that runs in the browser. A page loads the prebuilt files, either copied into the project or served from a CDN. It is the successor of the Mozilla Skywriter (Bespin) project and is maintained as the primary editor for Cloud9 IDE. The prebuilt files are published from the ace-builds repository, which holds generated files only and takes no issues; reports go to the main repository.
