WsCodeEditor is a Flax Engine 1.12+ editor plugin that embeds a project-only C# code editor directly inside the Flax Editor.
The goal is practical in-editor scripting: open project scripts from the Content Browser, edit them in a dockable Flax window, and keep the normal Flax source-code editor workflow available if you want to use another editor instead.

- Windows x64 editor
- Project C# scripts under
Source/
- Dockable in-editor code editor window
- Project-only source tree rooted at

- Optional Flax source-code editor integration through the normal source editor selector

- The editor focuses on project scripts under
Source/and intentionally ignores plugin source folders. - This pass is IDE-lite, not a full Visual Studio or Rider replacement.
