Feature Highlights

Built hand‑in‑hand with the Voltus IDE feature document for accuracy

⚡

Instant Execution

Run JavaScript inside the IDE iframe or in a live Chrome tab via our Chrome extension. Console output is captured, timestamped, and styled per log level.

📝

Ace-powered Editor

Syntax highlighting, line numbers, code folding, minimap, and customizable font/word-wrap settings keep editing fluid.

📂

Tab & Console Control

Unlimited tabs with rename/close actions, clearable console with drag-to-resize handle, and toast-style notifications for every action.

💡

People First UI

Frameless windows, glass morphism, yellow accents, gradients, and tilt effects deliver a focus-first workspace as documented.

🔌

Extension & Automation

Chrome extension communication, toast feedback, and safe execution modes make experimentation reliable while respecting user intent.

🛡️

Safety First

Sandboxed local mode, permissioned browser execution, confirmation dialogs, and signed sessions ensure predictable behavior.

Detail from the documentation

Every highlight below is taken directly from docs/VOLTUS_IDE_FEATURES.md.

Interface & Visuals

  • Frameless window chrome with rounded corners, draggable title bar, and branded logo.
  • Glass morphism, gradients, and subtle shadows with 20px backdrop blur.
  • Yellow (#facc15) highlights on a pure black (#000000) canvas with JetBrains Mono body text.

Editor & Tabs

  • Ace Editor powers syntax highlighting, auto-indent, multiple cursors, and minimap navigation.
  • Unlimited tabs with rename-on-double-click, close icons, plus button, and smooth 3D-hover effects.
  • Settings for font size (12–20px), word wrap, minimap visibility, and future themes.

Execution & Output

  • Local mode runs inside an iframe sandbox; Browser mode communicates with the Chrome extension.
  • Console captures `.log`, `.warn`, `.error` with color-coding and timestamps plus a clear button.
  • Toolbar includes settings gear, script hub, tab browser, open/save placeholders, and clear confirmation.

Interactions & Feedback

  • 3D tilt, hover glows, and scale feedback keep you aware of state changes.
  • Toast notifications (success, error, warning) slide from bottom-right and auto-dismiss.
  • Confirmation modals blur the backdrop, respond to ESC, and emphasize destructive actions.

Safety & Continuity

  • Code isolation prevents iframe code from touching the parent IDE.
  • Chrome extension only runs with `activeTab` permission and triggers from explicit execution.
  • Auto-save on tab switch and session-limited persistence keep data local until the window closes.

Roadmap & Performance

  • Planned additions include Script Hub, file system integration, theming, auto-save to disk, and debugging tools.
  • Performance tuned with `requestAnimationFrame`, debounced minimap rendering, and GPU-accelerated transitions.
  • Chrome extension connection status and execution labels keep you informed.
