I love this app!! I was frustrated trying to learn lilypond with my usual editor (vim) and kept having to switch back and forwards with to preview the pdf (compile, then alt-tab).
This editor allows me to 'auto-render' and preview my code at every save.
I hope you continue to develop this editor. It is so much faster and simpler than Frescobaldi (which I find a bit bloaty for my tastes)
