Nova Code is a modern, lightweight, and high-performance code editor built using cutting-edge web technologies and the powerful Rust ecosystem.

The project combines the flexibility of web interfaces with the performance of native applications. We use Tauri v2 to create a cross-platform desktop application with minimal resource consumption, Svelte 5 for a reactive and fast interface, and Tailwind CSS v4 for styling. Monaco Editor is used as the editor core — the same engine as in VS Code.

• Tauri v2: Framework for building cross-platform applications using web technologies and Rust.
• Svelte 5: Compiler and framework for building user interfaces.
• Tailwind CSS v4: Utility-first CSS framework for rapid styling.
• Monaco Editor: Powerful code editor supporting syntax highlighting, autocomplete, and more.
• Vite: Next-generation frontend tooling.
• TypeScript: Typed JavaScript for robust development.

To work with the project, you will need:

• Node.js (LTS version recommended)
• Rust (including cargo, required for Tauri build)
• Build tools for your OS (see Tauri documentation)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/FerrisMind/Nova-Code.git
   cd nova-code

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

To run the application in development mode (with hot reload):

npm run tauri dev

This command will start the Vite frontend server and open the Tauri application window.

To create an optimized executable for your operating system:

npm run tauri build

The built file will be located in the src-tauri/target/release/bundle directory.
