New Editor API Guide

Kirill Osenkov edited this page Mar 25, 2019 · 6 revisions

Starting from the 8.0 release Visual Studio for Mac introduces a new text editor engine and UI, the same that is used by Visual Studio. The benefits of sharing the editor between Visual Studio and Visual Studio for Mac is that code targeting the Visual Studio editor can run on Visual Studio for Mac with almost no changes required.
