I have explore some like “Code Mirror” But i am in need of code editor like “Sublime Text”. Is there any api or gem by which I can have editor like sublime text.

Are you hoping to edit a file on the PC running the browser? If not then where is the file to be edited?
Colin
I want that user can write code on the browser and can save it to the server, like hackerearth , hackerrank are some of the websites which have editors embedded in their browser.
Thanks.
Wouldn't node be a better candidate? You want real time no?
I don’t think it is as simple as using a gem. I am using https://github.com/grounds/grounds.io to run http://www.rubyplus.biz check it out!
VIM is an Extreme customizable editor, Perform over your dreams.
I want editor like this only. Is integration difficuilt ?? And is compiler for different languages embedded with editor only??
Thank you very much. This will solve my problem.
Rakesh,
I know VIM is best editor but for technical people and my website is for end user so I cannot have VIM tool embedded in my website.
Thanks.
I run this Rails app on a separate domain. You can get a $5/month instance on digital ocean and host grounds.io on your own domain. I cloned it and customized the look and feel for my needs. It uses Docker to execute code in a separate environment so your Rails app is isolated. I am in the process of documenting the steps to get it running on my blog. Meanwhile, if you are eager to get started you can read this thread: https://github.com/grounds/grounds.io/issues/108#issuecomment-73281000
