Question: Do you know an alternative to monaco editor?
Is it just that initial load that you're worried about? If it is I'd say it's plenty acceptable, maybe try to add a distracting spinner or something. I don't think giving up Monaco is worth trying to eliminate just that initial load time. More on reddit.com
Recommendations for a a lightweight text editor
Daniel Roe (Nuxt core team) have wrote a cool article about it like 2 years ago. I think it's still relevant. He's been using Pell which is extremely lightweight. https://roe.dev/blog/building-your-own-vue-rich-text-component More on reddit.com
Copenhagen: Free, lightweight, open source and hackable code editor for the web
Here's a CodeSandbox with the editor running in React and TypeScript. If you'd like to use the component in your own project, you'll find a checklist of required steps at the top of the `copenhagen-editor.tsx` file. Some thoughts: Having worked a lot with Monaco, I'm happy to see a new code editor more oriented toward scripting or smaller projects on the web. My initial impression is that while Copenhagen's editor works very well for its size, the code isn't very modern or modular: it is not available as an NPM package, the code directly bundles its dependencies (which are few but may lead to duplication), mounts into the window object (no SSR), and requires a separate CSS import. It's also written in JavaScript rather than TypeScript, which may make its API a bit slower to pick up. A few of those boxes would likely need to get checked in order for it to be a more general solution and successful open source package. I hope they do—and I may contribute myself— because it's a great little editor. More on reddit.com
Does anyone know of a good syntax highlighter?
Never had any problems with Prism. It's extremely lightweight and pretty fast. More on reddit.com

Building a code editor with Monaco | by Satyajit Sahoo | Exposition
September 8, 2018 - So I wanted to make a React component to use Monaco. Monaco requires only a DOM node to render, so we can render a div and pass the ref to Monaco: We probably want to use it as a controlled component. We can subscribe to the changes in the editor content like so: To properly use it as a controlled component, when the content changes via a prop, we also want to update the editor content:

June 4, 2024 - It is a similar case to componentDidMount event in React. When executing this function will pass you the current Monaco editor. Also inside this function you can initiate to bind your editor with the monaco-langclient which will help you bind language features to your editor. This will help you to bind your editor with your Language Server to provide rich language editing experience. next is the onChange property which we can register the onChange call back to get the newest content on the code editor upon an edit(each key input).
