In the beginning, Atom appeared. It created an API to make packages, but together with this API, it also allowed authors to use web APIs together with node.js packages, modules (including "nat…
We’ve been telling a series of stories about all the different ways that Tree-sitter can improve the editing experience in Pulsar. Today’s story about symbols-view starts a bit slowly, but it’s got a great ending: the addition of a major new feature to Pulsar 1.113.

One annoying thing that software developers do is insist on writing in more than one language at once. Web developers are espeically obnoxious about this — routinely, for instance, putting CSS inside their HTML, or HTML inside their JavaScript, or CSS inside their HTML inside their JavaScript.
Code editors like Pulsar need to roll with this, so today we’ll talk about how the modern Tree-sitter system handles what we call injections.
What month is most important for a Pulsar? A supernova-ember! ...What isn't a bad joke is this, the Pulsar community update!
Last time we looked at Tree-sitter’s query system and showed how it can be used to make a syntax highlighting engine in Pulsar. But syntax highlighting is simply the most visible of the various tasks that a language package performs.
Today we’ll look at two other systems — indentation hinting and code folding — and I’ll explain how queries can be used to support each one.
Armed with a big ol' can of Raid: Pulsar 1.110.0 is available now!
Last time I laid out the case for why we chose to embrace TextMate-style scope names, even in newer Tree-sitter grammars. I set a difficult challenge for Pulsar: make it so that a Tree-sitter grammar can do anything a TextMate grammar can do.
Today I’d like to show you the specific problems that we had to solve in order to pull that off.
As the leaves turn brown and the days grow shorter, make sure you draw up a chair and settle in for a nice, warm, pumpkin spice edition of the Pulsar community update!
In the last post, I tried to explain why the new Tree-sitter integration was worth writing about in the first place: because we needed to integrate it into a system defined by TextMate grammars, and we had to solve some challenging problems along the way.
Today I’ll try to illustrate what that system looks like and why it’s important.
The last few releases of Pulsar have been bragging about a feature that arguably isn’t even new: our experimental “modern” Tree-sitter implementation. You might’ve read that phrase a few times now without fully understanding what it means, and an explanation is long overdue.
