I’ve been curious how this sort of editor would work for non-game code

I mean software is just a game that isn't a game, and Godot does do a decent job of it. on !Godot@programming.dev somebody recently posted* a note-taking app and someone in the comments linked to an article about Godot for GUI software development.

Bindings are nice too, and as a mostly-non-coder I've actually done a small sample program with Godot+Nim-lang. In a similar vein, there is Raylib (which has lots of bindings options) and paired with rGuiLayout you might get something going.

I tried a Qt editor once and it seemed a bit clunky to me, then some simple toolkits that I think have a better experience despite lacking an editor (though lack of dynamic text scaling is probably an issue here, at least it was for me as I wanted unicode symbols for a text-centric application).

TUI applications are a fun idea too, though viable ideas are chicken-and-egg for me so I'll probably just stick to Godot if I make anything.
