- one of these days...

- it would be absolutely amazing if one of the guys writing posts along the lines "here is our super duper text editor"...

- would actually explain in a series of blog posts how they built a text editor from scratch and I am not talking about code...

- I am talking about architecture, methodology, how each feature is implemented on paper before coding it, thought process behind one..

- I am amazed that we live in a world where people create all types of software and yet little to no blog posts ever discuss the thought process and methodology behind them...

- like why did you do this...

- why is this feature implemented in this way and what are the alternative implementations and why did you pick this implementation over the others
