lite

lite is a lightweight program with a completely self-contained structure. The tool aims at offering a code editor that can emulate the core principles of the programming language it is used for — Lua.

Lua a super-simple-and-elegant programming language. It has a clean syntax thanks to its preponderant-scripting trait. This language is an advantageous choice for web and visuals-focused applications. As a short summary, Lua is a straightforward, easy-to-learn, clean-looking programing language.

lite is a free program, a portable tool that emulates the main characteristics of Lua. This lightweight code editor was made to be used by Lua coders, with Lua syntax only, and has the great benefit of being self-contained. It is that simple: copy a Lua file, paste it in lite's directory, and open the lite editor using the executable — the file will automatically be read and added to the tree structure created by the editor.

Both lite and Lua are a minimalist's dream. All files, commands, setups, configurations, dependencies, and the actual code for the editor are self-contained. Given the level of synchronicity this product offers, it's obvious that all the elements that define the editor's interface can be customized and adapted; this can be done using Lua code, via the editor's plug-ins.

lite a practical utility that offers quick, internal solutions. All searches are conducted using the command finder (Ctrl + Shift + P). For manipulating files, you would use the command: namespace:action-name. For example, searching for the newdoc command, followed by the accessing of the return suggestion, opens a new document.

To summarize, lite is an excellent choice and a practical, smoothly-working code editor. If you are Lua developer and looking for a tool that can help you write clean code, offers code completion suggestions, is super-customizable via plug-ins, and offers a diverse palette theme for its interface, lite is the solution.
