I’ve not had as much time over the last days of the jam but thankfully made amazing progress in the first days so that I can at least demonstrate the core of the idea and get a feel for how it will work. I posted a video to Discord (unfortunately too big to upload here) showing me “using” (the editor doesn't save yet) making changes to the editor code itself. In the example I'm modifying my hard coded UI padding offsets and adding them to a theme struct, switching between sections of the file using several portals.

Less time available today but continuing from the restructuring and building out of basic editing functionality I’ve done enough of an editor to start playing with the next idea.

First evening of the Jam. Displaying a source text file (from Odin's core library) in multiple columns (like a newspaper). I wasn't sure this idea would work and I don't think it does, having tried it, but it has fired a few neurons that wouldn't otherwise have fired. There isn't an pretence of editing any text and it's really hacked together code using Odin & Raylib. I'll have to do some basic editing for testing some of my next ideas though.
