What it is and what it does
streamlit-code-editor provides a code editor widget for Streamlit applications. It allows developers to embed an interactive, syntax-highlighted code input field in their Streamlit apps, with support for multiple programming languages and custom styling. The editor returns a response dictionary containing the edited code and related metadata.
The package is designed for Streamlit-based tools that need users to input, edit, or review code interactively. It has a single runtime dependency on streamlit and requires Python 3.6 or later. The aging maintenance status and unclear license mean you should verify its suitability for your use case before committing to it in production.
Use it for
- Build interactive code playgrounds or tutorials where users can edit code snippets within a Streamlit app.
- Create configuration interfaces that accept code input for custom logic or queries.
- Develop educational tools or coding challenge platforms that collect code submissions from learners.
- Add code editing to data science dashboards for users to modify analysis scripts on the fly.
- Prototype internal tools that need syntax-aware code input without building a full IDE.
