External Code Editor Addon

=====================================

Overview

External Code Editor is an addon designed for Anki version 2.1, offering advanced code editing and updating capabilities during card reviews. With this addon, you can seamlessly copy code from your review session to an HTML file, edit the HTML file using an external editor (such as VSCode), and run the code within the review just like a browser. This addon streamlines the process of updating code directly within the notetype, making it particularly valuable for add-on development or creating intricate card templates.

• Edit HTML File: Edit the HTML file in an external editor (e.g., VSCode) to refine your code.

• Update Code (Ctrl+S): Transfer the updated code from the HTML file back to the notetype in the review, then reload the current card.

Requirements

• Compatible with Anki version 2.1.20 or higher.
