Is it possible to use lite xl as a library?

[Sahasrara]

I'm thinking of building a C++ GUI app using Dear IMGUI and am trying to find a text editor I can launch within a window (one that using LSP for code completion).

Is that possible with lite xl?

Not currently possible, I recently worked on decoupling the main functionality into a shared library on the meson stage (also adding proper dllexports) for other purposes described here pragtical/pragtical#41 but it could be a first step for what you are asking for, since everything is made available for external linking.

You could try replacing the "backend" part (windowing, events, drawing) with your own, based on Dear IMGUI.
As for using Lite XL as a library, I don't think you'll have much luck. Also considering that plugins, like the LSP one, are tightly integrated with how the full editor works.
