For example: +TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, LESS, SCSS, JSON and HTML. + +Because the Web IDE is based on the [Monaco Editor](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/), +you can find a more complete list of supported languages in the +[Monaco languages](https://github.com/Microsoft/monaco-languages) repository. + +NOTE: **Note:** +Single file editing is based on the [Ace Editor](https://ace.c9.io). + ## Stage and commit changes After making your changes, click the Commit button in the bottom left to -- cgit v1.2.1
