Text Forge Mode Library

Modes status overview for official Text Forge mods

"Mode" concept in Text Forge

Text Forge designed to be lightweight and modular, so we use language agnostic development to keep it in this frame and have highly extendable architecture. To support save/load buffers, syntax highlighters, and every special feature for every file and format, Text Forge provides "Modes". A mode is a module with all data related to a language, framework or file type. With text-based and object oriented design modes can have very small size. (currently less than 10KB for each official mode)

About TFM API

Text Forge have a powerful API for modes based on GDScript, this API name is Text Forge Mode API (TFM API in short). This API received some major updates and currently haven't complete support for older API versions, so we use TFM API badge to define mode supporting level. You can use just a mode with same API major version number as your editor internal API. Minor API version updates may have little breaking features or simple added features. Using latest editor for latest TFM API and new feature and fixes (specialy for modes) is very recommended.

• Please open an issue for each mode/mode kit you want to add, it can be your mode or a mode created by someone else.
• Describe mode features and provide link to mode source.
• For mode kits, describe that kit contents can be used separately or no. These mode kits should provide .tfmode for each mode separately (and one for full kit) in releases.
• Please use template in mode README file (see official modes/mode kits for example) and add text-forge tag to source repo, or recommend these changes to mode maintainers.
