# ❄️ Fönn

A code editor for _fun_.

![Screenshot of the fn TUI modifying its own source code](./screenshots/fn.webp)

This is currently a toy project, but `fn` is stable enough that I'm exclusively using it when working on changes to the editor.

My primary goal is to have a modern, capable TUI code editor.

A secondary goal is for `fn` to eventually have both a GUI and a TUI powered by the same text editing "engine".

## Build instructions

```sh

# Debug build in ./zig-out/bin/fn.

zig build

# Run debug build in current directory.

zig build run

# Open a file with debug build.

zig build run -- path/to/file

# Release build in ~/.local/bin/fn.

zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseSafe --prefix ~/.local

```

## Usage

```sh

$ fn --help

Usage: fn [file]

General options:

  -h, --help     Print fn help

  -v, --version  Print fn version

```
