WorldPingShow HN: Rhun, an open-source code editor written in assembly
What happened
I found that I'm not using even 1/3 of vim/vscode features anymore.
That's wht I'm building rhun - a small code editor for Linux, Windows and Apple silicon Macs.
It obviously has Vim mode, a terminal, Git diffs and a panel for Claude Code or Codex sessions.
Key facts
- I found that I'm not using even 1/3 of vim/vscode features anymore.

Why it matters
Platform, chip and AI decisions set the terms other companies have to build on, so a single announcement here tends to ripple through products, supply chains and regulation.
What to watch next
- Availability, pricing and rollout regions
- Independent testing or verification of the claims made
- Responses from regulators and competing platforms
