my use-case

from typing import Dict, Type

class Operator:

    @abstractmethod
    def operate():
        raise NotImplementedError

class Add(Operator):
    def operate():
        return +

class Minus(Operator):
    def operate():
        return -

 # Dictionary \w the Operator's child as value
 operator_factory: Dict[str, Type[Operator]] = {
     "add": Add,
     "minus": Minus
 }

Was thinking about writing my own editor. Why you ask?

• A fun and challenging project to work on

I could write it down in python with help of blogs and videos. But i also want to learn new language so maybe i can try in rust.

Found this good blogs on writing your or TUI based editor in C.

• https://viewsourcecode.org/snaptoken/kilo/index.html

And of course everything that is in C has a version in rust.

• https://www.flenker.blog/hecto/ [this is what i am planning to follow]

Both seem to be great work.
