This would be super cool if it was part of a Shopify Theme IDE. The default Shopify code editor is garbage, and the closet thing to a real editor, Motifmate (http://motifmate.com/motifmate), is buggy, slow, and I never had a smooth time editing with it. (Although their new product, Motifmate Toolbox is pretty good for syncing changes to a live environment).

When you say the "default" Shopify code editor, do you mean that one that is built into the Shopify website itself? I know a lot of people use 3rd party code editors also.

Yes, the one built into the browser. It’s good for one off fixes, but not somewhere you’d want to spend hours writing code. I’ve used Atom with Liquid syntax highlighting, and Motifmate toolbox for sync in the past. But I like the potential in what OP shared.
