Code Editor Components: CodeMirror vs Monaco Editor

These are popular code editor components that let developers add text editing with syntax highlighting to their web applications. CodeMirror is a lightweight, customizable editor often used for simpler code editing needs, while Monaco Editor is the same editor used in VS Code, offering more advanced features like IntelliSense and debugging. Both help developers create in-browser code editing experiences, but they differ in size and complexity.
