I've not used Delphi/Pascal seriously for over a decade... and then a month ago, after being fed up with sublime/VScode/atom as my daily drivers for developing python I decided to write my own editor. So I installed Lazarus and within 12 hours I had a working editor which is so much FASTER than [put your JS based editor here]

This is the component-based nature of Delphi/Lazarus. You can find/buy components that implement entire chunks of your application in one shot, including code editors (SynEdit).
Is your editor available somewhere? Even just screenshots would be neat.
It is still for personal use, but I really hope that by the end of the summer I'll have something ready for public consumption
