Ace vs Graphite Docs: What are the differences?
Developers describe Ace as "Embeddable code editor written in JavaScript". Ace is a standalone code editor written in JavaScript. Our goal is to create a browser based editor that matches and extends the features, usability and performance of existing native editors such as TextMate, Vim or Eclipse. It can be easily embedded in any web page or JavaScript application. On the other hand, Graphite Docs is detailed as "A decentralized and encrypted Google Docs alternative". Graphite enables convenient, secure, decentralized, and user-owned file creation, file storage, communication, and sharing.
Ace and Graphite Docs can be categorized as "Collaborative Text Editor" tools.
Ace and Graphite Docs are both open source tools. It seems that Ace with 20K GitHub stars and 4.4K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Graphite Docs with 279 GitHub stars and 30 GitHub forks.
