Lighter. Faster. Better to edit in.

Winc is built in Rust on its own rendering engine. It launches in a tenth of a second and holds 100,000 lines in 52 MB. Multiple cursors, find and replace, and side-by-side diffs all respond the moment you type or scroll.

Capabilities

It's all in the details.

From multiple cursors to word-level diffs, from Markdown preview to the commit graph, every feature you use each day is held to one standard: ready the moment you open it, and quick under your fingers.

Editing
Multiple cursors, find and replace, and native input methods, with smooth scrolling in gigabyte-sized files.
Formatting
Tidy a whole file in one step with rustfmt, Prettier, Black, Ruff, gofmt, and more.

Preview
Preview Markdown, images, SVG, and spreadsheets (xlsx, csv), and switch back to the source at any time.
Diffs and Commits
Side-by-side diffs with word-level highlights and staging by hunk. Commit and push once it looks right.
Commit Graph
A commit graph colored by branch. Filter commits, compare any two versions, and trace every line with blame.
File Tree
Browse the project by folder and open any file with ⌘P. Search follows your .gitignore rules.
Terminal
Bring up a terminal at the bottom of the window, run your command, and put it away.
Windows
Every window shares one process and one glyph cache, so new windows open without a cold start.

Themes

Four themes, one for every hour.

Daylight for the day, Rice Paper when you want warmth, Night Flight after dark, and the softer Distant Hills late at night. Every theme keeps body text at 7:1 contrast or better, with syntax colors that share one lightness and differ clearly in hue.
