Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

No response

Describe the solution you'd like

Add some kind of runner for compiling projects
Makefiles
Xcode command line build system
Cargo
NPM
Compilers for different languages
etc

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. it could just run a custom command specified by the user
  2. it could be added with extensions but that could come with a potential security risk

Additional context

This feature is for being able to build projects from the editor directly like the Code Runner extension from VSCode

Helpful resources

We should most-likely handle this with extensions. This issue will be blocked until we can get the ExtensionAPI in place.

I think CodeEdit should at bare minimum work with make and cmake.

We support either everything or nothing in this case.

This is kind of a weird defined issue. CodeEdit will not compile anything. The idea is that you can bind the run button to what ever kind of script you want.

This can be seen as a duplicate of #438

Would this be part of something like a .codeedit directory, or just a file in CodeEdit for every project, without it ever becoming part of a git repository or folder?
