Reporch IDE
Use the editor
Open files from Explorer, edit them, and verify saved state.
Overview
The editor opens Explorer files in tabs for code and text changes. Diagnostics and completion depend on the file type and language server state.
Before you start
- A connected, ready workspace
- A project file available in Explorer
Steps
1. Open a file
Select a file in Explorer to open an editor tab.
2. Edit content
Change the source and review any diagnostics that appear.
3. Save
Use the Save command or displayed shortcut to persist the change.
4. Compare files
Open additional tabs and switch between them to understand the project structure.
Expected result
- The active path and tab identify the file being edited.
- Saved content remains after reconnecting to the same workspace.
Troubleshooting
- A read-only preview cannot be edited; open the original file from Explorer.
- If language tooling disconnects, continue basic editing and saving while it reconnects.
