More features for Textastic 10.7.x+
I have a few ideas, although I am not sure whether they are bugs or merely unimplemented.
First things first, function descriptors would be extremely nice. It'd make it a lot easier to use functions; i propose that they could be user-defined and/or built-in. something such as how VSCode does it would be amazing.
Second, I've noticed that imports don't have autocomplete, which is terrible. It's really frustrating to have modules in which you cant autocomplete the path to them (particularly namespace-style modules, accessed with the "@" symbol.).
Third, we need autocomplete/suggestions. It's so tedious to code without being able to see functions without typing them all out after looking in the relevant file (especially if they're from an external module, such as React.).
Also, if possible, it would be nice to have a way to customize the editor, such as something like style editing.
This lack of ease-of-use makes me, and probably people that think like me, want to either switch to another editor or make our own.
If needed, I can provide examples as well.

Did you see that you can add custom code completion, syntax definitions and themes? Sublime Text 3 and TextMate 1 syntax definitions are supported.
For syntax definitions and themes:

Code completion (includes the existing code completion definitions):

I actually never saw those lol. Thank you very much! In that case, would it be possible to have those (or a reference at the least) somewhere in the app?
Once again, I'm blind. I managed to look past it so many times. 🙄
