We don't have the editor as a separate package, we use `CodeMirror` for our playground. You can use that

## Rishabh — 2026-06-25T12:57:16.074000+00:00

<@757706909351411845> I remember having a talk about separating the CodeEditor to a different repo from tscircuit.com. But I am not sure if we should have a package for users to use our CodeEditor (cause we are itself using CodeMirror, and not much added value from our side)

We have a code editor separated, but it needs work and needs to be integrated

## Mustafa7 — 2026-06-25T13:56:19.831000+00:00

Arnav was working on it

## Rishabh — 2026-06-25T14:03:11.016000+00:00

yeah, I know. It will help us to cleanup the tscircuit.com.

## ! Rushabh | Linux Shill — 2026-06-25T14:56:16.726000+00:00

what work is needed to integrate it??

## Mustafa7 — 2026-06-25T15:17:24.007000+00:00

Not sure how much of it is implemented. Let's see what seve has to see

## Seve — 2026-06-27T01:36:51.475000+00:00

i have no idea it should probably be scrapped

## Seve — 2026-06-27T01:36:58.117000+00:00

i don't think there was any meaningful progress made

## Seve — 2026-06-27T01:37:04.757000+00:00

you can create a new repo using tscircuit/create-repo

## ! Rushabh | Linux Shill — 2026-06-27T01:40:18.818000+00:00

what should the new CodeEditor package include at minimum?

## Seve — 2026-06-27T01:40:54.548000+00:00

i would use your best judgement haha

## Seve — 2026-06-27T01:41:16.352000+00:00

but ideally it is lightweight, fast, has autocomplete for typescript, type checking, and can load tscircuit's types

## Seve — 2026-06-27T01:41:26.935000+00:00

it doesn't need to run tscircuit code however

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:04:25.439000+00:00

the actual bundle size matters

## ! Rushabh | Linux Shill — 2026-06-27T02:10:37.847000+00:00

then code mirror is better.

## ! Rushabh | Linux Shill — 2026-06-27T02:11:19.801000+00:00

Arnav's attempt used Monaco

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:11:46.340000+00:00

no that's not what i mean

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:11:50.967000+00:00

what is the ACTUAL bundle size

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:12:03.861000+00:00

this comparison is meaningless without knowing what the ACTUAL bundle size is

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:12:10.438000+00:00

Monaco otherwise seems like a much better option

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:12:40.616000+00:00

also the repo name you proposed is already taken

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:18:30.018000+00:00

i'm not super opinionated on this but Monaco is probably easier because CodeMirror tsx support was difficult

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:21:26.151000+00:00

that isn't meaningful

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:21:50.407000+00:00

because monaco isn't the right size

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:21:54.926000+00:00

typescript alone is like 20mb

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:22:03.795000+00:00

it's fine... i'd rather see the experiment with monaco

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:22:06.762000+00:00

so just try that

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:22:13.620000+00:00

tsx with codemirror was not easy to implement

## Seve — 2026-06-27T02:22:19.207000+00:00

it's not worth that struggle again
