Getting Started

Celer comes with an Editor that runs in the browser and lets you preview the project that you are making changes to.

Workflows

The editor supports 2 workflows:

  1. Web editor: You make changes to the project files in the browser. The changes can be automatically saved to your file system. Recommended for everyone, supported browsers only.
  2. External editor: You make changes to the project files in an external text editor/IDE (VS Code, Emacs, Vim/Neovim...), and the browser will automatically recompile the route on change. Recommended to people who are comfortable writing code.

To switch between the 2 workflows:

  1. Click on Settings on the Toolbar.
  2. Select the Editor category.
  3. Under General, use the Workflow drop down to select the workflow.

TIP

You can tell which workflow you are using by either:

  • Going into the settings dialog.
  • See if the Toolbar has the Save and the Load options. You are using the web editor workflow if these 2 options are there.

Next

Once you decided on the workflow, the Web Editor or External Editor page will guide you through what you need to do to get started.
