Crate writ 

A Typora-style markdown editor component for GPUI.

Writ provides an embeddable markdown editor with live inline rendering—markers like **, #, and - are hidden when the cursor is elsewhere, showing only the styled result.

Features

• Live inline rendering: Markdown syntax is hidden when not editing
• Syntax highlighting: Code blocks with tree-sitter based highlighting
• Smart continuation: Shift+Enter continues lists, blockquotes, etc.
• Streaming support: Append text programmatically for AI chat applications

Quick Start

use writ::{Editor, EditorConfig};

// Create with default config
let editor = cx.new(|cx| Editor::new("# Hello", cx));

// Or with custom config
let config = EditorConfig::default();
let editor = cx.new(|cx| Editor::with_config("# Hello", config, cx));

Streaming

For AI chat or other streaming use cases:

editor.update(cx, |e, cx| e.begin_streaming(cx));
for token in stream {
    editor.update(cx, |e, cx| e.append(&token, cx));
}
editor.update(cx, |e, cx| e.end_streaming(cx));
