+GNOME has a Brand New Text Editor and it is Likely to Replace Gedit in GNOME 42
+======
+
+Gedit is the default text editor for the GNOME desktop environment. It is a popular option and an effective text editor that offers all the essentials with a simple user interface.
+
+But, with GNOME evolving, there is a new text editor that hasn’t yet replaced gedit. And, looking at its next release, it might just be ready to replace gedit in the upcoming GNOME 42 release with a bunch of improvements.
+
+[Christian Hergert][1] shares more details about it in his [blog post][2] and on Twitter.
+
+In this article, let me highlight those new improvements to GNOME Text Editor.
+
+### Preferences Dialogue Makes a Comeback
+
+The preferences setting was moved to the sidebar as part of an experiment in its previous release.
+
+![][3]
+
+But, it did not prove to be as convenient and good-looking.
+
+So, the preferences dialogue is coming back (as shown in the screenshot below) that aims to blend in with the design language of other GNOME apps without being clunky.

+
+Looks pretty sweet to me and should give a better user experience compared to the sidebar implementation for sure!
+
+### Improved Open ‘Popover’ Feature
+

+
+When you try to open a recent file or search for something, a popover appears to quickly look for any recent files without launching a new dialogue box.
+
+This saves time and is a nice feature to have. With the upcoming release for text editor, this has received some slight improvements to appear slimmer and more effective.
+
+In other words, you will find it improved for keyboard navigation by simply hitting Ctrl + K and then looking for the file you want.
+
+### Introducing Recoloring Support
+
+The upcoming release for GNOME’s text editor will let you easily apply different style-scheme (or themes) that affects the entire application.
+
+The blog post mentions more about it:
+
+> The most visual piece of work this week was in introducing recoloring support. It builds atop [libadwaita][6] and uses a CSS provider to override the colors in the theme. I expect there will be a recoloring API in the not-too distant future for libadwaita which will provide this for us.
+
+Here’s a sample of what it looks like when you apply a style-scheme:

+
+You can find some of the themes bundled and can look for more as you explore. You can find more screenshot in Christian’s blog post.

+
+You can also find some other technical changes and a vim emulation easter egg by Christian as you explore the [blog post for more details][2].
+
+### Will GNOME Text Editor Replace Gedit?
+
+As of now, there is no official confirmation on this. However, looking at the [development activity for gedit][8] (currently as 41 alpha version) with no significant additions in the past few releases, it could mean that the new GNOME Text Editor will replace gedit in GNOME 42.
+
+In fact, GNOME’s new text editor plans to officially replace gedit as mentioned in its [GitLab page][9], but will it happen with GNOME 42? Its developer, Christian Hergert, mentions in his blog
+
+> [Text Editor][9] has really been shaping up in the past couple weeks as we race towards getting things ready for GNOME 42.
+
+This could be taken as a hint that GNOME 42 may seem the inclusion of this new text editor.
+
+It’s not just GNOME. [KDE also has revamped Kate][10] by adding features for developers. You’ve got plenty of [open source text editors][11] to choose from.
+
+We shall keep an eye on it when it releases. What do you think?
