From YouTube: GitLab 13.10 Kickoff - Create:Editor
Description
Overview of what's planned for the Create:Editor group in 13.10.
Planning issue here: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/create-stage/-/issues/12804
A
Hi
everyone,
my
name,
is
eric
schurter
and
I'm
the
product
manager
for
the
editor
group,
which
is
part
of
the
create
stage
of
the
devops
lifecycle
here
at
git
lab,
and
I
want
to
talk
to
you
today
about
what
we
have
planned
for
the
13.10
milestone
and
I'll
link
to
this
planning
issue
in
the
video
description.
So
you
can
see
more
detail
and
click
through
to
our
release
board,
where
all
the
individual
issues
will
be
tracked.
A
Please
feel
free
to
ask
questions
or
leave
feedback
in
those
issues.
I'd
love
to
hear
from
you
I'll
start
by
just
going
category
by
category
and
highlighting
a
few
key
issues,
though
starting
with
the
web
ide
and
as
I
mentioned
in
the
13.9
kickoff,
we
are
working
to
convert
the
web
ide
to
use
editor
lite,
which
is
our
abstraction
of
the
monaco
code.
Editor,
which
is
currently
powering
the
web.
A
Ide
and
editor
light
is,
is
our
attempt
to
sort
of
unify
around
a
standard
code,
editing
component
that
will
allow
us
to
have
a
more
performant,
more
consistent
and
more
extensible
code.
Editing
experience
across
kit
lab
so
we're
wrapping
that
work
up
in
13.9
and
in
13.10.
We
kind
of
just
want
to
carry
it
over
and
and
finish
up
some
performance
improvement
work
as
well
as
some
small
ux
improvements,
so
you'll
mostly
see
the
performance
improvements
in
the
form
of
loading
loading
files
in
the
web,
ide,
especially
large
files.
A
So
keep
a
look
out
for
that,
although
you
may
or
may
not
experience
that,
depending
on
the
files
you're
working
with
another
sort
of
visible
feature
that
we
want
to
implement
in
1310
would
be
the
adding
the
ability
to
link
to
a
single
line
of
code
within
the
web
ide
from
outside
the
web
id
so
that
by
appending
the
line
of
code
to
the
end
of
a
url,
you
can
open
up
the
file
in
the
web,
ide
and
it'll
load
and
highlight
that
specific
line
item.
A
I
think
this
is
going
to
be
great
for
collaboration
for
making
code
review
a
lot
easier
and
and
just
overall
make
the
experience
of
working
in
the
web
ide
much
nicer.
So
similarly,
there's
a
couple
quality
of
life
bugs
that
we
want
to
tackle
highlighting
a
file
when
you
open
a
merge
request
in
the
web
ide.
Currently,
that
connection
can
be
lost
and
you
can
lose
context
there
we're
working
on
that
now
and
hope
to
bring
that
home
in
13.10
and
in
the
act
of
switching
between
the
commit
and
edit
tab
it
can.
A
Moving
on
to
snippets,
I
want
to
talk
about
a
similarly
small
but
important
ux
improvement,
so
we
introduced
multi-file
snippets
several
milestones
ago
and
right
now,
though,
when
you're
looking
at
a
list
of
snippets,
you
don't
really
have
a
sense
of
how
many
files
might
be
contained
within
so
we're
just
going
to
add
a
small
badge
in
the
list
view
that
shows
how
many
files
are
inside
that
snippet
most
of
them
will
have
one,
but
you
know
we
think
this
is
going
to
be
a
great
way
to
help
provide
context.
A
In
that
view,
and
and
hopefully
drive
adoption
of
the
multi-file
snippet
feature
moving
on
to
wiki
and
specifically
our
implementation
of
the
rich
text
editor,
which
I've
been
talking
about
a
little
bit
and
if
you
watch
our
other
youtube
videos,
we
have
been
researching
for
several
months
now,
but
this
is
an
important
milestone
for
us,
because
this
is
the
first
milestone
where
I
we're
going
to
be
committing
actual
code
to
move
forward.
A
The
direction
of
that
rich
text
editor,
ostensibly
for
the
static
site
editor,
but
actually
the
wiki
is
going
to
be
our
first
target.
It
has
a
much
more
contained
and
easier
to
manage
set
of
data,
so
we're
going
to
try
and
build
out
a
rich
text.
Editing
experience
within
the
wiki,
with
the
hopes
of
bringing
the
rich
text
editor
to
all
markdown
editing
experiences
throughout
gitlab.
So
our
first
steps,
though,
are
going
to
be
creating
the
scaffolding
and
building
the
project
in
gitlab
ui,
so
that
we
can
continue
developing.
A
A
You
know
a
more
interactive,
rich
text,
editing
experience
and
use
that
across
all
of
gitlab,
and
so
you
know
we
can
have
what
looks
like
a
markdown
preview,
but
have
it
be
editable
and
we're
still
working
on
the
the
final
designs
there,
but
more
on
that
in
the
coming
milestones,
switching
gears
to
navigation
and
settings.
So
in
13.9
we
were
focused
on
adding
the
ability
to
search
within
a
settings
page
and
I'm
happy
to
tell
you
that
we
completed
that
work.
A
It's
currently
behind
a
feature
flag,
but
in
1310
we'll
be
testing
that
making
sure
that
it
meets
our
expectations
and
we'll
turn
off
that
feature
flag
in
1310
and
make
it
available
for
everyone,
and
also
when
it
comes
to
settings
and
navigation.
The
next
larger
effort
that
we
want
to
tackle
is
simplifying
the
top
navigation
items.
So
right
now
we
have
the
projects,
groups
and
more
dropdowns.
A
We've
been
doing
a
lot
of
research
and
we've
decided
that
consolidating
those
three
items
into
a
single
menu
is
going
to
be
the
the
most
impactful
change
that
we
can
make
to
provide
an
additional
context
around,
what's
usually
kind
of
lost
within
the
the
more
drop
down
which
are
instance,
level
features,
and-
and
we
have
three
things
that
we're
going
to
do
for
our
mvc.
First
of
all,
we're
going
to
combine
them
all
into
one
menu.
A
Second,
we're
going
to
change
the
logic
around
frequently
visited
which
actually
frequently
doesn't
work
and
relies
on
local
storage.
So,
depending
on,
if
you
clear
your
cache
or
switch
browsers,
it
may
be
different.
We're
going
to
move
that
to
recently
visited
so
it's
a
little
more
predictable
and
expected,
and
then
we're
going
to
investigate
this.
The
search
here
inside
the
menu
right
now.
The
results
for
a
lot
of
times,
at
least
within
gitlab
here,
can
can
be
not
the
most
relevant.
A
So
we're
going
to
take
a
look
and
see
if
we
can
get
those
results
a
little
more
accurate,
so
those
three
things
being
our
mvc.
We
probably
almost
certainly
won't
be
able
to
deliver
all
of
them
to
everybody
in
1310,
but
we
will
be
starting
to
lay
the
foundation
and
we
will
be
working
on
that
and
have
some
more
information
in
the
next
kickoff
video.
